Question

Can you give me some of Shakespeare? I really like his works...

Answer 1

Time's glory is to command contending kings,

To unmask falsehood, and bring truth to light.

The Rape of Lucrece

On a day—alack the day!—

Love, whose month is ever May,

Spied a blossom passing fair

Playing in the wanton air

Sonnets to Sundry Notes of Music, II

Not to be confused with The Sonnets; this poem is not a sonnet

Crabbed age and youth cannot live together:

Youth is full of pleasure, age is full of care

The Passionate Pilgrim: A Madrigal

There is some doubt about the authorship.

I gyve unto my wief my second best bed with the furniture

(Modern spelling: I give unto my wife my second best bed with the furniture.)

Shakespeare's will

Good frend for Jesus sake forbeare/To digg the dust encloased heare/Blese be the man that spares these stones/And curst be he that moves my bones

(Modern spelling: Good friend, for Jesus' sake forbear, to dig the dust enclosèd here. Blessed be the man that spares these stones, And cursed be he that moves my bones.)

Answer 2

To be, or not to be: that is the question. (Hamlet)

There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so. (Hamlet)

Note: Don't look if you don't want to be overwhelmed. Sometimes, it's best to have just enough.
