Brevity is the soul of wit
English poet, playwright and actor, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's greatest dramatist
I like this place and willingly could waste my time in it
Can one desire too much of a good thing?
When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions
I will speak daggers to her, but use none
Rich gifts wax poor when givers prove unkind
Doubt that the sun doth move, doubt truth to be a liar, but never doubt I love
Broadly speaking short words are best and the old words when short, are best of all
You must not do anything while you are angry. Would the sail be hoisted in the storm ?
Where there is ruin, there is hope for a treasure
For it would be better to die once and for all than to suffer pain for all one's life
Compared to the pleasure given by granting pardon, the pleasure given by exacting revenge is very faint indeed.
To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary. To one without faith, no explanation is possible
