Shakespeare's quotes If you have tears, prepare to shed them now. As he was valiant, I honour him. But as he was ambitious, I slew him. Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice. My pride fell with my fortunes. With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come. There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so . When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions. Modest doubt is called the beacon of the wise. Ignorance is the curse of God; knowledge is the wing wherewith we fly to heaven.
