William Shakespeare
The Play's the Thing, wherein I'll catch the conscience of the King.
William Shakespeare
Mechanic slaves With greasy aprons, rules, and hammers, shall Uplift us to the view.
William Shakespeare
Heaven would that she these gifts should have, and I to live and die her slave.

Death, not Romeo, take my maidenhead!
William Shakespeare
