What light through yonder window breaks?
'Tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church door; but 'tis enough, 'twill serve.
Thy head is as full of quarrels as an egg is full of meat.
Thy wit is a very bitter sweeting: it is most sharp sauce.
Come, gentle night, come, loving, blackbrow'd night.
Wisely, and slow; they stumble that run fast.
Mercy but murders, pardoning those that kill.
It And her immortal part with angels lives.
Not stepping o'er the bounds of modesty.
What's in a name? That which we call a rose,
By any other name would smell as sweet.
Some griefs show much of love;
But much of grief shows still some want of wit.
All these woes shall serve
For sweet discourses in our time to come.
O fortune, fortune! all men call thee fickle.
The sweetest honey
Is loathsome in his own deliciousness,
And in the taste confounds the appetite.
She is not well married that lives married long:
But she's best married that dies married young.
That book in many's eyes doth share the glory,
That in gold clasps locks in the golden story.
I have a faint cold fear thrills through my veins,
That almost freezes up the heat of life.
