Nor decked with diamonds and Indian stones, Nor to be seen; my crown is called contentment. A crown it is, that seldom kings enjoy”
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“Nor stony tower, nor walls of beaten brass, Nor airless dungeon, nor strong links of iron, Can be retentive to the strength of spirit; But life, being weary of these worldly bars, Never lacks power to dismiss itself.”
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“Poor and content is rich and rich enough.”
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“Reflection is the business of man; a sense of his state is his first duty: but who remembereth himself in joy? Is it not in mercy then that sorrow is allotted unto us?”
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“Some rise by sin, some by virtue fall.”
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“The gods approve the depth, and not the tumult, of the soul.”
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“The law hath not been dead, though it hath slept.”
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“The miserable have no other medicine but only hope.”
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“Though I am not naturally honest, I am so sometimes by chance.”
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“What’s in a name? That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet.”
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE –“When icicles hang by the wall,/ And Dick the shepherd blows his nail,/ And Tom bears logs into the hall,/ And milk comes frozen home in pail,/When blood is nipp’d and ways be foul,/ Then nightly sings the staring owl,/ Tu-whit; Tu-who, a merry note,While greasy Joan doth keel the pot.”
