Citas

  • “For if I thought my judgment were of years, / I should commit thee surely with thy peers, / And tell how far thou didst our Lily outshine, / Or sporting Kyd, or Marlow’s mighty line. / And though thou hadst small Latin and less Greek, / From thence to honour thee, I will not seek / For names…”
    To the Memory of My Beloved, the Author, Mr. William ShakespeareEn inglés
  • “I remember the players have often mentioned it as an honor to Shakespeare, that in his writing, whatsoever he penned, he never blotted out a line. My answer hath been, “Would he had blotted a thousand”.”
    Timber: or DiscoveriesEn inglés
  • “They say princes learn no art truly, but the art of horsemanship. The reason is, the brave beast is no flatterer. He will throw a prince as soon as his groom.”
    Timber: or DiscoveriesEn inglés
  • “Follow a shadow, it still flies you; / Seem to fly it, it will pursue: / So court a mistress, she denies you; / Let her alone, she will court you.”
    The ForestEn inglés
  • “The voice so sweet, the words so fair, / As some soft chime had stroked the air; / And, though the sound were parted thence, / Still left an echo in the sense.”
