Shall we their fond pageant see?
Lord, what fools these mortals be!

My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite.
Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises,
Sounds, and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears; and sometime voices,
That, if I then had waked after long sleep,
Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming,
The clouds methought would open, and show riches
Ready to drop upon me; that, when I waked,
I cried to dream again.
A wretched soul, bruised with adversity,
We bid be quiet when we hear it cry;
But were we burdened with light weight of pain,
As much or more we should ourselves complain.
It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.
William ShakespeareTags: destiny
His life was gentle; and the elements
So mixed in him, that Nature might stand up
And say to all the world, THIS WAS A MAN!

O, speak again, bright angel, for thou art as glorious to this night, being o'er my head, as is a winged messenger of heaven
Unto the white-upturned wond'ring eyes
Of mortals fall back to gaze on him.
This day's black fate on more days doth depend;
This but begins the woe, others must end.
Thou hast nor youth nor age
But as it were an after dinner sleep
Dreaming of both.
