William Shakespeare Quotes

I'll give my jewels for a set of beads, My gorgeous palace for a hermitage, My gay apparel for an almsman's gown, My figured goblets for a dish of wood, My scepter for a palmer's walking staff. My subjects for a pair of carved saintsand my large kingdom for a little grave.

William Shakespeare
