William Shakespeare
This day I breathed first: time is come round, And where I did begin there shall I end My life is run his compass.
William Shakespeare
Fight valiantly to-day and yet I do thee wrong to mind thee of it, for thou art framed of the firm truth of valor.
William Shakespeare
And teach me how To name the bigger light, and how the less, That burn by day and night.
