"Do not speak like a death's-head, do..." - Quote by William Shakespeare

“What many men desire--that 'many' may be meant By the fool multitude that choose by show, Not learning more than the fond eye doth teach, Which pries not to th' interior, but like the martlet Builds in the weather on the outward wall, Even in the force and road of casualty.”

“The pow'r that I have on you is to spare you; The malice towards you to forgive you.”

“Let those that play your clowns speak no more than is set down for them.”

“Live everyday as if it were your last because someday you're going to be right.”

“...small too even the longest fame thereafter, which is itself subject to a succession of little men who quickly die, and have no knowledge of themselves, let alone of those long dead.”

“I know simply that the sky will last longer than I.”

“Hope is the last thing that dies in man; and though it be exceedingly deceitful, yet it is of this good use to us, that while we are traveling through life it conducts us in an easier and more pleasant way to our journey's end.”

“Conduct your triumph as a funeral.”

“Without birth and death, and without the perpetual transmutation of all the forms of life, the world would be static, rhythm-less, undancing, mummified.”
