William Shakespeare
World, world, O world! But that thy strange mutations make us hate thee/ Life would not yield to age.
William Shakespeare
Speak, my fair, and fairly, I pray thee.
William Shakespeare
Right joyous are we to behold your face, Most worthy brother England fairly met!
William Shakespeare
And all my mother came into mine eyes And gave me up to tears.
William Shakespeare
All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players: they have their exits and their entrances and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages.
William Shakespeare
What a terrible era in which idiots govern the blind.
William Shakespeare
