Say, thou art mine and ever, My love, as it begins, shall so persevere
William Shakespeare

Nature does require her times of preservation.
William Shakespeare
Image
These violent delights have violent ends And in their triumph die, like fire and powder, Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey Is loathsome in his own deliciousness And in the taste confounds the appetite. Therefore love moderately long love doth so Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
William Shakespeare
Image
A fool, a fool! I met a fool i' th' forest, A motley fool! a miserable world! As I do live by food, I met a fool Who laid him down and basked him in the sun And railed on Lady Fortune in good terms, In good set terms, and yet a motley fool.
William Shakespeare
Image
Pray, love, remember: and there is pansies, that's for thoughts.
William Shakespeare
Image
I do not set my life at a pin's fee, And for my soul, what can it do to that, Being a thing immortal as itself?
William Shakespeare
Image
Where every something, being blent together turns to a wild of nothing.
William Shakespeare
Image
There is no creature loves me And if I die, no soul will pity me.
William Shakespeare
