William Shakespeare on Choice
← Back to William Shakespeare Profile
“Preferment goes by letter and affection.”
“Set honour in one eye and death i' the other, And I will look on both indifferently.”
“Which of them shall I take? Both? one? or neither? Neither can be enjoy'd, If both remain alive.”
“I will not choose what many men desire, Because I will not jump with common spirits, And rank me with the barbarous multitudes.”
