Lady, you are the cruel'st she alive If you will lead these graces to the grave And leave the world no copy.
William Shakespeare
I had as lief have been myself alone.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Art thou afeard To be the same in thine own act and valour As thou art in desire? Wouldst thou have that Which thou esteem'st the ornament of life, And live a coward in thine own esteem, Letting 'I dare not' wait upon 'I would,' Like the poor cat i' the adage?
William Shakespeare
So curses all Eve's daughters of what complexion soever.
William Shakespeare

Full many a glorious morn I have seen Flatter the mountain-tops with sovereign eye, Kissing with golden face the meadows green, Gilding pale streams with heavenly alchemy.
William Shakespeare
Old fashions please me best I am not so nice To change true rules for odd inventions.
William Shakespeare
A wretched soul, bruised with adversity, We bid be quiet when we hear it cry But were we burdened with light weight of pain, As much or more we should ourselves complain.
William Shakespeare
Let none presume To wear an undeserved dignity. O that estates, degrees, and offices Were not derived corruptly, and that clear honour Were purchased by the merit of the wearer!
William Shakespeare
Who can control his fate?
William Shakespeare
The strawberry grows underneath the nettle And wholesome berries thrive and ripen best Neighbour'd by fruit of baser quality.
