William Shakespeare
Hot blood begets hot thoughts, And hot thoughts beget Hot deeds, And hot deeds is love.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
O, where is loyalty? If it be banished from the frosty head, Where shall it find a harbor in the earth?
William Shakespeare
O braggart vile and damned furious wight!
William Shakespeare
Nor stony tower, nor walls of beaten brass, Nor airless dungeon, nor strong links of iron, Can be retentive to the strength of spirit But life, being weary of these worldly bars, Never lacks power to dismiss itself.
