"Instead of weeping when a tragedy occurs..." - Quote by William Shakespeare

“I love thee, and it is my love that speaks”

“Shall I never see a bachelor of three score again?”

“To me, fair friend, you never can be old, For as you were when first your eye I ey'd, Such seems your beauty still.”

“A child must feel the flush of victory and the heart-sinking of disappointment before he takes with a will to the tasks distasteful to him and resolves to dance his way through a dull routine of textbooks.”

“Heroes are made in the hour of defeat. Success is, therefore, well described as a series of glorious defeats.”

“What we cannot bear removes us from life; what remains can be borne.”

“I saw battle-corpses, myriads of them,And the white skeletons of young men-I saw them;I saw the debris and debris of all the dead soldiers of the war;But I saw they were not as was thought;They themselves were fully at rest-they suffer'd not;The living remain'd and suffer'd-the mother suffer'd,And the wife and the child, and the musing comrade suffer'd,And the armies that remain'd suffer'd.”

“The violence of either grief or joy, their own enactures with themselves destroy.”

“O madam, my old heart is cracked, it's cracked!”
