Affection, mistress of passion, sways it to the mood of what it likes or loathes.
William Shakespeare
Sorrow breaks seasons and reposing hours, Makes the night morning, and the noontide night
William Shakespeare
"You have of late stood out against your brother, and he hath taken you newly into his grace; where it is impossible you should take true root but by the fair weather that you make yourself: it is needful that you frame the season for your own harvest
William Shakespeare
The people are like water and the ruler a boat. Water can support a boat or overturn it.
William Shakespeare
