William Shakespeare
Therefore, to be possess'd with double pomp, To guard a title that was rich before, To gild refined gold, to paint the lily, To throw a perfume on the violet, To smooth the ice, or add another hue Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish, Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
That man that hath a tongue, I say is no man, if with his tongue he cannot win a woman.
William Shakespeare
