A fool thinks
himself to be wise, but a
wise man knows himself to be
a fool.
William Shakespeare
A friend
i'the court is better than a
penny in purse.
William Shakespeare
A man
loves the meat in his youth
that he cannot endure in his
age.
William Shakespeare
A peace
is of the nature of a
conquest; for then both
parties nobly are subdued,

from those we love is self

Shakespeare
Alas, I
am a woman friendless,
hopeless!
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
Ambition
should be made of sterner
stuff.
William Shakespeare
An
overflow of good converts to
bad.
William Shakespeare
And
oftentimes excusing of a
fault doth make the fault
the worse by the excuse.

to wanton boys, are we to
the gods; they kill us for
their sport.

as he was ambitious, I slew
him.

afraid of greatness: some
are born great, some achieve

be my friend.

are men; the best sometimes
forget.

But O,
how bitter a thing it is to
look into happiness through
another man's eyes.
William Shakespeare

sin fell the angels.
William Shakespeare
Children
wish fathers looked but with
their eyes; fathers that
children with their judgment
looked; and either may be
wrong.
William Shakespeare
...Love is not love
Which alters when it
alteration finds,
Or Bends with the remover to
remove.
O, no! It is an ever-fixed
mark,
That looks on tempests and
is never shaken.
It is the star to every
wandering bark,
whose worth's unknown,
although his height be
taken.
Love sought is good, but
given unsought, is better.
Love is a smoke raised with
the fume of sighs,
Being purged, a fire
sparkling in lovers' eyes,
Being vexed, a sea nourished
with lovers' tears.
What is it else? A madness
most discreet,
A choking gall and a
preserving sweet.
