The devil shall have his bargain for he was never yet a breaker of proverbs--he will give the devil his due.
William Shakespeare
This feather stirs she lives! if it be so, it is a chance which does redeem all sorrows that ever I have felt.
William Shakespeare
Let me have war, say I it exceeds peace as far as day does night it's spritely, waking, audible, and full of vent.
William Shakespeare
I am a subject, And I challenge law. Attorneys are denied me, And therefore personally I lay my claim To my inheritance of free descent.
William Shakespeare
Under the colour of commending him I have access my own love to prefer But Silvia is too fair, too true, too holy, To be corrupted with my worthless gifts.
William Shakespeare
I would that I were low laid in my grave. I am not worth this coil that's made for me.
William Shakespeare
