"Life's uncertain voyage...." - Quote by William Shakespeare

“Each present joy or sorrow seems the chief.”

“I, thus neglecting worldly ends, all dedicatedTo closeness and the bettering of my mind.”

“There's no trust, No faith, no honesty in men; all perjured, All forsworn, all naught, all dissemblers.”

“What is the use of living, if it be not to strive for noble causes and to make this muddled world a better place for those who will live in it after we are gone?”

“Love often leads on to ambition, but seldom does one return from ambition to love.”

“I don't like to see things on purpose. I like them to soak in. A friend . . . asked me to go to the top of the Empire State Building once, and I told him that he shouldn't treat New York as a sight-it's feeling, an emotional experience. And the same with every place else.”

“We are not certain, we are never certain.”

“You will come to a place where the streets are not marked. Some windows are lighted. but mostly they're darked. But mostly they're darked. A place you could sprain both your elbow and chin! Do you dare to stay out? Do you dare to go in? How much can you lose? How much can you win?”

“To fear death, gentlemen, is no other than to think oneself wise when one is not, to think one knows what one does not know.”
