Love's best habit is a soothing tongue
William Shakespeare
The sense of death is most in apprehension, And the poor beetle, that we tread upon, In corporal sufferance finds a pang as great As when a giant dies.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Think'st thou I'd make a life of jealousy, To follow still the changes of the moon With fresh suspicions? No to be once in doubt Is once to be resolved.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
And makes me poor indeed.
William Shakespeare
God is our fortress, in whose conquering name Let us resolve to scale their flinty bulwarks.
William Shakespeare
Cease to lament for that thou canst not help and study help for that which thou lamentest.
William Shakespeare
If I for my opinion bleed, opinion shall be surgeon to my hurt, and keep me on the side where still I am.
William Shakespeare
Aand in the end, Having my freedom, boast of nothing else But that I was a journeyman to grief?
William Shakespeare
To offend and judge are distinct offices, And of opposed natures.
William Shakespeare
Ay, but hearken, sir though the chameleon Love can feed on the air, I am one that am nourished by my victuals, and would fain have meat.
William Shakespeare
