"How well he's read, to reason against..." - Quote by William Shakespeare

“Lovers can do their amorous rites by their own beauties”

“A light heart lives long.”

“Tis beauty that doth oft make women proud; but, God He knows, thy share thereof is small.”

“Luckily ... there were Zulus and Afghans, also the Dervishes in the Soudan. Some of these might, if they were well-disposed, 'put up a show' some day.”

“All of a sudden, I feel very old and very tired. Maybe when I get to California, the smog, brush fires, floods, and earthquakes will cheer me up.”

“Earth laughs in flowers to see her boastful boys Earth-proud, proud of the earth which is not theirs; Who steer the plough, but cannot steer their feet Clear of the grave.”

“Intuition does not denote something contrary to reason, but something outside of the province of reason.”

“It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of your own ignorance.”

“A forward critic often dupes us With sham quotations peri hupsos, And if we have not read Longinus, Will magisterially outshine us. Then, lest with Greek he over-run ye, Procure the book for love or money, Translated from Boileau's translation, And quote quotation on quotation.”
