For her person, it beggar'd all description.
William Shakespeare
My love is as a fever, longing still
For that which longer nurseth the disease,
Feeding on that which doth preserve the ill,
Th' uncertain sickly appetite to please.
William Shakespeare
Give every man your ear, but few thy voice. Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgment.
William Shakespeare
Set down the basket, villain!
William Shakespeare
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.
William Shakespeare
