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
If you think you can slander a woman into loving you, or a man into voting for you, try it till you are satisfied
I was born and have ever remained in the most humble walks of life
I want to sing like the birds sing, not worrying about who hears or what they think
If you have ten thousand regulations you destroy all respect for the law
The best deed of a great man is to forgive and forget
The rights of every man are diminished when the rights of one man are threatened
