Shorten my days thou canst with sullen sorrow, And pluck nights from me, but not lend a morrow Thou canst help time to furrow me with age, But stop no wrinkle in his pilgrimage.

William Shakespeare
Ambition, the soldier's virtue.
William Shakespeare
Proper deformity shows not in the fiend So horrid as in woman.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
I'll follow thee and make a heaven of hell, To die upon the hand I love so well
William Shakespeare
The gates of monarchs Are arched so high that giants may jet through And keep their impious turbans on without Good morrow to the sun.
William Shakespeare
For which of my bad parts didst thou first fall in love with me?
William Shakespeare
Thus we play the fool with the time and the spirits of the wise sit in the clouds and mock us.
William Shakespeare
How much more doth beauty beauteous seem by that sweet ornament which truth doth give!
William Shakespeare
What to ourselves in passion we propose, The passion ending, doth the purpose lose.
William Shakespeare
Give every man thine ear, but few thy voice Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgment.
William Shakespeare
To this urn let those repair That are either true or fair For these dead birds sigh a prayer.
William Shakespeare
From this time forth My thoughts be bloody, or be nothing worth!
William Shakespeare
There's nothing in this world can make me joy: Life is as tedious as a twice-told tale Vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man And bitter shame hath spoil'd the sweet world's taste That it yields nought but shame and bitterness.
William Shakespeare
