William Shakespeare
My love till death, my humble thanks, my prayers;
That love which virtue begs and virtue grants.
William Shakespeare
Had all his hairs been lives, my great revenge had stomach for them all.
William Shakespeare
I thank my liege that in regard of me
He shortens four years of my son's exile;
But little vantage shall I reap thereby,
For ere the six years that he hath to spend
Can change their moons and bring their times about,
My oil-dried lamp and time-bewasted light
Shall be extinct with age and endless night;
My inch of taper will be burnt and done,
And blindfold death not let me see my son.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
