More quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
O sleep! O gentle sleep! Nature's soft nurse.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

Death, that hath suck'd the honey of thy breath hath had no power yet upon thy beauty.
William Shakespeare
It is a heretic that makes the fire, Not she which burns in it.
William Shakespeare
