More From William Shakespeare

O lord, thou knowest that which is best for us; let this or that be done, as thou shalt please. give what thou wilt, how much thou wilt, and when thou wilt. deal with me as thou thinkest best. place me where thou wilt, and deal with me in all things just as thou wilt. behold, i am thy servant, prepared for all things: i desire not to live unto myself, but unto thee; and oh, that i could do it worthily and perfectly!
Giving Justice Preparation
Sin! sin! thou art a hateful and horrible thing, that abominable thing which god hates. and what wonder? thou hast insulted his holy majesty; thou hast bereaved him of beloved children; thou hast crucified the son of his infinite love; thou hast vexed his gracious spirit; thou hast defied his power; thou hast despised his grace; and in the body and blood of jesus, as if that were a common thing, thou hast trodden under foot his matchless mercy. surely, brethren, the wonder of wonders is, that sin is not that abominable thing which we also hate.
Jesus Art Children
Grief! thou art classed amongst the depressing passions. and true it is that thou humblest to the dust, but also thou exaltest to the clouds. thou shakest us with ague, but also thou steadiest like frost. thou sickenest the heart, but also thou healest its infirmities.
Depressing Art Grief
Oh, thou did'st then ne'er love so heartily. if thou rememb'rest not the slightest folly that ever love did make thee run inot, thou has not loved. of if thou has't not sat as i do now, wearying they hearer in thy mistress's praise, thou has not loved. of if thou hast not broke from company abruptly, as my passion now makes me, thou has not loved. (silvius)
Running Passion Mistress
Antiquity! thou wondrous charm, what art thou? that being nothing art everything? when thou wert, thou wert not antiquity - then thou wert nothing, but hadst a remoter antiquity, as thou calledst it, to look back to with blind veneration; thou thyself being to thyself flat, jejune, modern! what mystery lurks in this retroversion? or what half januses are we, that cannot look forward with the same idolatry with which we for ever revert! the mighty future is as nothing, being everything! the past is everything, being nothing!
Art Past Looks
If thy desire to raise thy fortunes encourage thy delights to the casts of fortune, be wise betimes, lest thou repent too late; what thou gettest, thou gainest by abused providence; what thou losest, thou losest by abused patience; what thou winnest is prodigally spent; what thou losest is prodigally lost; it is an evil trade that prodigally drives; and a bad voyage where the pilot is blind.

Inspirational Motivational Wise
You are the only woman who has a sense of gaiety, a wise tolerance - no more, you seem to urge me to betray you. i love you for that. [...] i don't know what to expect of you, but it is something in the way of a miracle. i am going to demand everything of you - even the impossible, because you encourage it. you are really strong. i even like your deceit, your treachery. it seems aristocratic to me.
Wise Strong Love You
