«Necessity's sharp pinch!»

«Some true love turned and not a false turned true.»

«The birds chaunt melody on every bush, The snake lies rolled in the cheerful sun, The green leaves quiver with the cooling wind, And make a checkered shadow on the ground; Under their sweet shade, Aaron, let us sit, And whilst the babbling echo mocks the hounds, Replying shrilly to the well-tuned horns, As if a double hunt were heard at once, Let us sit down and mark their yellowing noise; And after conflict such as was supposed The wand'ring prince and Dido once enjoyed, When with a happy storm they were surprised, And curtained with a counsel-keeping cave, We may, each wreathed in the other's arms, Our pastimes done, possess a golden slumber, Whiles hounds and horns and sweet melodious birds Be unto us as is a nurse's song Of lullaby to bring her babe asleep.»
«Love all, but trust a few.»
«Cowards die a thousand deaths. The valiant taste of death but once.»
«What, my dear Lady Disdain! are you yet living?»
Author: William Shakespeare

«Heaven is above all yet; there sits a judgeThat no king can corrupt.»
