Bounty, being free itself, thinks all others so.
William Shakespeare
When we are born we cry that we are come to this great stage of fools.
William Shakespeare
Misery acquaints a man with strange bedfellows.
William Shakespeare
I should think this a gull, but that the white-bearded fellow speaks it knavery cannot, sure, hide himself in such reverence.
William Shakespeare
You Jig, you amble, and you lisp.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
It is as easy to count atomies as to resolve the propositions of a lover.
William Shakespeare
Captain of our fairy band, Helena is here at hand, And the youth, mistook by me, Pleading for a lover's fee. Shall we their fond pageant see? Lord, what fools these mortals be!
William Shakespeare
The dullness of the fool is the whetstone of the wits.
William Shakespeare
All men's faces are true, whatsome'er their hands are.
William Shakespeare

Death, as the Psalmist saith, is certain to all, all shall die.
William Shakespeare
The miserable have no other medicine But only hope.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Your bait of falsehood takes this carp of truth, And thus do we of wisdom and of reach, With windlasses and with assays of bias, By indirections find directions out.
William Shakespeare
Steed threatens steed, in high and boastful neighs Piercing the night's dull ear and from the tents The armorers accomplishing the knights, With busy hammers closing rivets up, Give dreadful note of preparation.
William Shakespeare
Methinks a father Is at the nuptial of his son a guest That best becomes the table.
William Shakespeare
The wounds invisible that Love's keen arrows make.
William Shakespeare
Swift as shadow, short as any dream
