For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground And tell sad stories of the death of kings.
Experience teacheth that resolution is a sole help in need.
Defer no time, delays have dangerous ends.
Our remedies oft in ourselves do lie, Which we ascribe to Heaven.
Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.
'Tis dangerous to take a cold, to sleep, to drink; but I tell you, my lord fool, out of this nettle, danger, we pluck this flower, safety.
