Farewell! a long farewell to all my greatness!

Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.

The course of true love never did run smooth.

Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.

It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.

No legacy is so rich as honesty.

God has given you one face, and you make yourself another.

It is not in our stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.

The Eyes are the window to your soul

What a terrible era in which idiots govern the blind.

Hell is empty and all the devils are here.

In your anger, zip your lips!

Success is a journey, not a destination.

Love is the mortar that holds the human structure together.

Where it is a duty to worship the sun it is pretty sure to be a crime to examine the laws of heat.

That's a real sign of the times - can you imagine Nick Cave wearing a hoodie? He may not wear one, but he definitely sells them.

Temperance is reason's girdle and passion's bridle, the strength of the soul and the foundation of virtue.

No small misery is caused by overworked and unhappy people, in the dark views which they necessarily take up themselves, and force upon others, of work itself.

I can understand people wanting to look their best, and taking basic steps to do it, but I kind of admire people who are comfortable enough in their own skin to be who they are.

For me, poetry is an evasion of the real job of writing prose.

We must have a better word than "prefabricated", why not "ready-made"?
