         "There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.",
         "What a piece of work is man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculty! in form and moving how express and admirable! in action how like an angel! in apprehension how like a god! the beauty of the world, the paragon of animals! .",
         "The lady doth protest too much, methinks.",
         "In my mind's eye.",
         "A little more than kin, and less than kind.",

         "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.",
         "Wisely and slow; they stumble that run fast.",
         "Tempt not a desperate man.",
         "For you and I are past our dancing days.",
         "O! she doth teach the torches to burn bright.",
         "It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night like a rich jewel in an Ethiope's ear.",
