The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe.
And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
She walks in Beauty by Lord Byron.
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.Macbeth by William Shakespeare.
Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
Macbeth (Act V, Scene V).
"Fair is foul, and foul is fair". - (Act I, Scene I).
Hamlet by William Shakespeare
There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.
Conscience doth make cowards of us all.
Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare
Parting is such sweet sorrow that I shall say goodnight till it be morrow.
King Henry V by William Shakespeare
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more,
Or close the wall up with our English dead!
In peace there ’s nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility;
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger:
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood.
King Henry V Act iii. Scene 1.
King Richard III by William Shakespeare
Conscience is but a word that cowards use,
devised at first to keep the strong in awe.- (Act V, Scene III).
