Ignorance is the curse of God; knowledge is the wing wherewith we fly to heaven.
Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.
A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool.
The wheel is come full circle.
Doubt thou the stars are fire, Doubt that the sun doth move. Doubt truth to be a liar, But never doubt I love.
As soon go kindle fire with snow, as seek to quench the fire of love with words.
It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.
Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.
Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.
When a father gives to his son, both laugh; when a son gives to his father, both cry.
We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.
If music be the food of love, play on.
The course of true love never did run smooth.
Brevity is the soul of wit.
