William Shakespeare


●　Action is eloquence.


●　What win I, if I gain the thing I seek? A dream, a breath, a froth of fleeting joy. Who buys a minute’s mirth to wail a week? Or sells eternity to ‘get a toy? For one sweet grape who will the vine destroy? Or what fond beggar, but to touch the crown, Would with the sceptre straight be strucken down?

●　There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so

●　The rest is silence.

●　The night is long that never finds the day.

●　The empty vessel makes the loudest sound(“emptiest” (least intelligent) people are the loudest, while often the quietest people have the most wisdom)


●　Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice.

●　O momentary grace of mortal men,Which we more hunt for than the grace of god! Who builds his hope in air of your good looks Lives like a drunken sailor on a mast,Ready with every nod to tumble down Into the fatal bowels of the deep.



●　Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once. — William Shakespeare

●　O, beware, my lord, of jealousy！It is the green-ey’d monster, which doth mock　The meat it feeds on.

●　The worst is not, So long as we can say, ‘This is the worst.’.

●　you gods, will give us. Some faults to make us men.

●　unaccommodated man is no more but such a poor, bare, forked animal as thou art．

●　The labor we delight in cures pain.

●　Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.

●　Poor and content is rich and rich enough; but riches endless is as poor and winter to him that ever fears he shall be poor.
