Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.
William Shakespeare
I have heard of your paintings too, well enough God has given you one face, and you make yourselves another: you jig, you amble, and you lisp, and nick-name God's creatures, and make your wantonness your ignorance. Go to, I'll no more on't it hath made me mad.
William Shakespeare
What I have done is yours what I have to do is yours being part in all I have, devoted yours.
