William Shakespeare
Thoughts are but dreams till their effects are tried.
William Shakespeare
Swift as shadow, short as any dream
William Shakespeare
Now is the winter of our discontent Made glorious summer by this sun of York And all the clouds that lour'd upon our house In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.
William Shakespeare
Forget, forgive conclude, and be agreed.
William Shakespeare
The violence of either grief or joy, their own enactures with themselves destroy.
William Shakespeare
Keep thy foot out of brothels, thy hand out of plackets, thy pen from lender's books, and defy the foul fiend.

William Shakespeare
In thee thy mother dies, our household's name, My death's revenge, thy youth, and England's fame.
William Shakespeare
My hounds are bred out of the Spartan kind So flew'd, so sanded their heads are hung with ears that sweep away the morning dew.
William Shakespeare
Be to yourself as you would to your friend.
William Shakespeare
The plants look up to heaven, from whence they have their nourishment.
William Shakespeare
Some say that ever 'gainst the season comes Wherein our Saviour's birth is celebrated, The bird of dawning singeth all night long: And then, they say, no spirit can walk abroad The nights are wholesome then no planets strike, No fairy takes, nor wi

A lover's eyes will gaze an eagle blind.
