More Quotes from William Shakespeare:
No; that same wicked bastard of Venus, that was begot ofthought, conceiv'd of spleen, and born of madness; that blind
rascally boy, that abuses every one's eyes, because his own are
out- let him be judge how deep I am in love.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Book both my wilfulness and errors down,
And on just proof surmise, accumulate;
Bring me within the level of your frown,
But shoot not at me in your wakened hate,
Since my appeal says I did strive to prove
The constancy and virtue of your love.
William Shakespeare
That god forbid, that made me first your slave,
I should in thought control your times of pleasure,
Or at your hand th' account of hours to crave,
Being your vassal bound to stay your leisure!
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
I know thee not, old man fall to thy prayers How ill white hairs become a fool and jester.
William Shakespeare
