Famine is in thy cheeks,
Need and oppression starveth in thine eyes,
Contempt and beggary hangs upon thy back:
The world is not thy friend, nor the world's law;
The world affords no law to make thee rich;
Then be not poor, but break it and take this.
(The Tragedy Of Romeo And Juliet)
More Quotes from William Shakespeare:
Therefore my age is as a lusty winter, Frosty, but kindly let me go with you.William Shakespeare
For that he has-
As much as in him lies- from time to time
Envied against the people, seeking means
To pluck away their power; as now at last
Given hostile strokes, and that not in the presence
Of dreaded justice, but on the ministers
That do distribute it- in the name o' th' people,
And in the power of us the tribunes, we,
Ev'n from this instant, banish him our city,
In peril of precipitation
From off the rock Tarpeian, never more
To enter our Rome gates.
William Shakespeare
My reason, the physician to my love,
Angry that his prescriptions are not kept,
Hath left me, and I desperate now approve
Desire is death, which physic did except.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Well, heaven knows how I love you; and you
shall one day find it.
William Shakespeare
My stronger guilt defeats my strong intent.
