William Shakespeare
Love is a smoke rais'd with the fume of sighs being purg'd, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes being vex'd, a sea nourish'd with lovers' tears what is it else? A madness most discreet, a choking gall, and a preserving sweet.
William Shakespeare
Here's that which is too weak to be a sinner, honest water, which ne'er left man i' the mire.
William Shakespeare
It is that fery person for all the orld, as just as you will desire and seven hundred pounds of moneys, and gold, and silver, is her grandsire upon his death's-bed-Got deliver to a joyful resurrections!
William Shakespeare
All hoods make not monks.
William Shakespeare
For we, which now behold these present days, Have eyes to wonder, but lack tongues to praise.
William Shakespeare
