QUOTE (William Shakespeare)

April 23, 2016

“The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man know himself to be a fool.”
~ William Shakespeare, As You Like It

“God shall be my hope, my stay, my guide and lantern to my feet.”
~ William Shakespeare, Henry V 

“The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.”
~ William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice

 “Now, God be praised, that to believing souls give light to darkness, comfort in despair.”
~ William Shakespeare, King Henry VI

ShakespeareTo be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to, ’tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish’d. To die, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there’s the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil.
~ William Shakespeare, Hamlet

In honor of William Shakespeare, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language, who is believed to have died on this day in 1616.

QUOTE (William Shakespeare) – April 26

April 26, 2014

William Shakespeare

“Good name in man and woman, dear my lord,
Is the immediate jewel of their souls:
Who steals my purse steals trash; ’tis something, nothing;
’twas mine, ’tis his, and has been slave to thousands;
But he that filches from me my good name
Robs me of that which not enriches him,
And makes me poor indeed.”
~ William Shakespeare, Othello

In honor of William Shakespeare, considered the greatest writer in English literature, who was baptized on this day in 1564.
