Quotes by William Shakespeare…
Your gentleness shall force more than your force move us to gentleness.
We must follow, not force Providence.
We are not ourselves.
Virtue is bold, and goodness never fearful.
The heavens themselves, the planets, and this center, observe degree, priority, and place.
Sweet are the uses of adversity.
He is well paid that is well satisfied.
Oppose not rage while rage is in its force, but give it way a while and let it waste.
The fault… is not in our stars, but in ourselves.
We know what we are, but not what we may be.
