William Shakespeare
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more Or close the wall with our English dead.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
The tyrant custom, most grave senators, Hath made the flinty and steel couch of war My thrice-driven bed of down.
William Shakespeare
Do not give dalliance too much rein the strongest oaths are straw to the fire in the blood.
William Shakespeare
Sweet are the uses of adversity
William Shakespeare
If I shall be condemned Upon surmises, all proofs sleeping else But what your jealousies awake, I tell you 'Tis rigor and not law.
William Shakespeare
Thanks, sir all the rest is mute.
William Shakespeare
Till our King Henry had shook hands with Death.

Say, thou art mine and ever, My love, as it begins, shall so persevere
William Shakespeare
