By William Shakespeare

  • Listen to many, speak to a few
  • When words are scarce they are seldom spent in vain
  • Wisely, and slow. They stumble that run fast
  • Pleasure and action make the hours seem short
  • Suspicion always haunts the guilty mind
  • It is the stars, The stars above us, govern our conditions
  • Say as you think and speak it from your souls
  • A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts
  • what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow
  • No, I will be the pattern of all patience; I will say nothing.
  • Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall
  • To do a great right do a little wrong
  • It is neither good nor bad, but thinking makes it so.
  • Be great in act, as you have been in thought.
  • A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool.
  • Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.
  • Fortune brings in some boats that are not steered.
  • If you have tears, prepare to shed them now.
  • Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.
  • Love is not love that alters when it alteration finds.
  • The golden age is before us, not behind us.
  • There is no darkness but ignorance.
  • We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
