| WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE |
| There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy (1. 5.). [Hamlet, Hamlet] This above all, to thine own self be true, And it must follow as the night the day Thou canst not then be false to any man (1. 3.). [Polonius, Hamlet] This royal throne of kings, this scepter'd isle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-paradise ...This happy breed of men, this little world, This precious stone set in a silver sea ...This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England... Thou know'st 'tis common--all that lives must die, Passing through nature to eternity (1. 2.). [Queen, Hamlet] Though this be madness, yet there is method in 't (2. 2.). [Polonius, Hamlet] --What do you read, my lord? words, words, words (2. 2.). [Polonius; Hamlet, Hamlet] What to ourselves in passion we propose, The passion ending, doth the purpose lose (3. 2.). [Player King, Hamlet] When the blood burns, how prodigal the soul lends the tongue vows. These blazes, daughter, Giving more light than heat, extinct in both Even in their promise, as it is a-making, You must not take for fire (1. 3.) [Polonius, Hamlet] Who would fardels bear, To grunt and sweat under a weary life, But that the dread of something after death, The undiscovered country, from whose bourn No traveller returns, puzzles the will, And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of (3. 1.)? [Hamlet, Hamlet] |
