O God of battles! steel my soldiers’ hearts. Possess them not with fear.
William Shakespeare
Winter, which, being full of care, makes summer's welcome thrice more wish'd, more rare.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Here will be an old abusing of God's patience and the king's English.
William Shakespeare
Now, infidel, I have you on the hip!
William Shakespeare
Gnawing with my teeth my bonds in sunder, I gain'd my freedom.
William Shakespeare
Thou frothy tickle-brained hedge-pig!
William Shakespeare
Or are you like the painting of a sorrow, a face without a heart?
William Shakespeare
O heaven! that one might read the book of fate, and see the revolution of the times.
William Shakespeare
I once did hold it, as our statists do, A baseness to write fair, and labour'd much How to forget that learning but, sir, now It did me yeoman's service.
