No reckoning made, but sent to my account with all my imperfections on my head.
William Shakespeare
O, how wretched is that poor man that hangs on princes' favors.
William Shakespeare
Ten kisses short as one, one long as twenty.
William Shakespeare
Come, seeling night, Scarf up the tender eye of pitiful day, And with thy bloody and invisible hand Cancel and tear to pieces that great bond Which keeps me pale. Light thickens, and the crow Makes wing to th' rooky wood. Good things of day begin to droop and drowse, While night's black agents to their prey do rouse.
William Shakespeare
Then is it sin to rush into the secret house of death. Ere death dare come to us?
William Shakespeare
But virtue never will be mov'd, Though lewdness court it in a shape of heaven.
William Shakespeare
Which can say more than this rich praise, that you alone are you?

William Shakespeare
I sat upon a promontory, And heard a mermaid, on a dolphin's back, Uttering such dulcet and harmonious breath, That the rude sea grew civil at her song And certain stars shot madly from their spheres, To hear the sea-maid's music.
William Shakespeare
How many fond fools serve mad jealousy!
William Shakespeare
I am a foe to tyrants, and my country's friend.
William Shakespeare
