William Shakespeare
Give thy thoughts no tongue, nor any unproportioned thought his act. Be thou familiar but by no means vulgar.

William Shakespeare
I thank you all and here dismiss you all, and to the love and favor of my country commit myself, my person, and the cause.
William Shakespeare
That which hath made them drunk hath made me bold What hath quenched them hath given me fire.
William Shakespeare
Where the bee sucks, there suck I In the cow-slip's bell i lie There I couch when owls do cry

Just death, kind umpire of men's miseries.
