QUOTES LXXIX

Paraphrased from Shakespeare's Henry IV, Part I, Act 3, Scene 1
Glendower: I can summon spirits from the deep.
Hotspur:     You may summon them, but will they come?

As You Like It, Act 2, Scene 7
All the world's a stage, and the men and women merely players. They have their exits and entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts.

Twelfth Night, Act 2, Scene 5
Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.

King Lear, Act 1, Scene 4
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child.

Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5
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.

A Midsummer Night's Dream, Act 1, Scene 1
The course of true love never did run smooth

Hamlet, Act 2, Scene 2
There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so. 
 
From the New Testament, John 9:25
Formerly blind man answering a question about Jesus:
Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
