By Shakespeare from “Hamlet”
Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice.
Rich gifts wax poor when givers prove unkind.
O, woe is me,
To have seen what I have seen, see what I see!
To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
I must be cruel, only to be kind:
Thus bad begins, and worse remains behind.
Neither a borrower nor a lender be;
For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
There is nothing either good or bad,
but thinking makes it so.
