William Shakespeare
Affliction is enamoured of thy parts, And thou art wedded to calamity.
William Shakespeare
Sweet are the uses of adversity which, like the toad, ugly and venomous, wears yet a precious jewel in his head.
William Shakespeare
Scorn, at first, makes after-love the more.

William Shakespeare
When workmen strive to do better than well, they do confound their skill in covetousness.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
What, man, defy the devil. Consider, he's an enemy to mankind.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
And oftentimes excusing of a fault Doth make the fault the worse by the excuse, As patches set upon a little breach, Discredit more in hiding of the fault Than did the fault before it was so patch'd.
William Shakespeare
Look on beauty, and you shall see 'tis purchased by the weight which therein works a miracle in Nature, making them lightest that wear most of it: so are those crisped snaky golden locks which make such wanton gambols with the wind upon supposed fairness, often known to be the dowry of a second head, the skull that bred them in the sepulchre.
William Shakespeare
Time goes on crutches till love have all his rites.
William Shakespeare
Who can be wise, amazed, temperate and furious, Loyal and neutral, in a moment? No man.
William Shakespeare
Not an angel of the air, Bird melodious or bird fair, Be absent hence!
William Shakespeare
Let life be short, else shame will be too long.
William Shakespeare
