William Shakespeare
God send everyone their heart's desire!
William Shakespeare
Therefore I tell my sorrows to the stones Who, though they cannot answer my distress, Yet in some sort they are better than the tribunes, For that they will not intercept my tale: When I do weep, they humbly at my feet Receive my tears and seem to weep with me And, were they but attired in grave weeds, Rome could afford no tribune like to these.
William Shakespeare
The sight of lovers feedeth those in love.

William Shakespeare
Instead of weeping when a tragedy occurs in a songbird's life, it sings away its grief. I believe we could well follow the pattern of our feathered friends.
William Shakespeare
'Tis better to be vile than vile esteemed, When not to be, receives reproach of being, And the just pleasure lost, which is so deemed, Not by our feeling, but by others' seeing.
William Shakespeare
Nature does require her time of preservation, which perforce, I her frail son amongst my brethren mortal, must give my attendance to.
William Shakespeare
