Thank you so much for the above mentioned quotations. Here are some wonderful lines by Shakespeare which I really love :
"Sweet are the uses of Adversity" As You Like It
"There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so". Hamlet
"What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet". Romeo And Juliet
"But love is blind, and lovers cannot see". The Merchant Of Venice
"A man can die but once". King Henry IV
"My love's more richer than my tongue". King Lear
"Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, and therefore is winged Cupid painted blind" A Mid Summer Night's Dream
"To mourn a mischief that is past and gone is the next way to draw new mischief on". Othelo
"Cowards die many times before their deaths..." Julius Caesar
"To be, or not to be: that is the question". Hamlet
