William Shakespeare
My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun
William Shakespeare
This thou perceivest, which makes thy love more strong, to love that well which thou must leave ere long
William Shakespeare
The weariest and most loathed worldly life, that age, ache, penury and imprisonment can lay on nature is a paradise, to what we fear of death.

William Shakespeare
