Additional quotes by William Shakespeare

I'll have no husband, if you be not he.

Now is the winter of our discontent
Made glorious summer by this sun of York;
And all the clouds that lour'd upon our house
In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.

There's an old saying that applies to me: you can't lose a game if you don't play the game. (Act 1, scene 4)
