《第十二夜》摘录:

Be not afraid of greatness. Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and others have greatness thrust upon them. If music be the food of love, play on, Give me excess of it; that surfeiting, The appetite may sicken, and so die. Love sought is good, but giv'n unsought is better. Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.
