More quotes by 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.
William Shakespeare
Let me embrace thee, sour adversity, for wise men say it is the wisest course.
William Shakespeare
The past is prologue.
William Shakespeare
So foul and fair a day I have not seen.

Should all despair That have revolted wives, the tenth of mankind Would hang themselves.
William Shakespeare
