William Shakespeare
These times of woe afford no time to woo.
William Shakespeare
Let still woman take An elder than herself: so wears she to him, So sways she level in her husband's heart, For, boy, however we do praise ourselves, Our fancies are more giddy and unfirm, More longing, wavering, sooner to be lost and warn, Than women's are.
William Shakespeare
Truth is truth to the end of reckoning.
William Shakespeare
The appurtenance of welcome is fashion and ceremony.
William Shakespeare
