William Shakespeare
O momentary grace of mortal men, Which we more hunt for than the grace of God!
William Shakespeare
Good wine needs no bush.
William Shakespeare
Life every man holds dear but the dear man holds honor far more precious dear than life.

At this hour Lie at my mercy all mine enemies.
William Shakespeare
