    William Shakespeare
    “Our revels now are ended. These our actors,
    As I foretold you, were all spirits and
    Are melted into air, into thin air:
    And, like the baseless fabric of this vision,
    The cloud-capp’d towers, the gorgeous palaces,
    The solemn temples, the great globe itself,
    Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve
    And, like this insubstantial pageant faded,
    Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff
    As dreams are made on, and our little life
    Is rounded with a sleep.”
    William Shakespeare, The Tempest

    William Shakespeare
    “Now my charms are all o'erthrown,
    And what strength I have's mine own, -
    Which is most faint: now, 'tis true,
    I must be here confined by you...
    But release me from my bands
    With the help of your good hands:
    Gentle breath of yours my sails
    Must fill, or else my project fails,
    Which was to please: now I want
    Spirits to enforce, art to enchant;
    And my ending is despair,
    Unless I be relieved by prayer,
    Which pierces so, that it assaults
    Mercy itself, and frees all faults.
    As you from crimes would pardon'd be,
    Let your indulgence set me free.”
    William Shakespeare, The Tempest

  • #10
    William Shakespeare
    “Ora i miei incantesimi si sono tutti spenti,
    la forza che possiedo è solo mia, ed è poca.
    Ora sta a voi tenermi qui confinato o mandarmi a Napoli.
    Poiché ho riavuto il Ducato e perdonato il traditore,
    Non fatemi rimanere col vostro potere in quest'isola nuda,
    ma scioglietemi da ogni legame con mani generose.
    Il vostro fiato gentile colmi le mie vele
    altrimenti fallisce Il mio progetto che era di dar piacere.
    Ora mi mancano spiriti da comandare,
    arte per incantare,
    e la mia fine è la disperazione,
    a meno che non sia salvato dalla preghiera
    Che va tanto a fondo da vincere la pietà e liberare dal peccato.
    Come voi per ogni colpa implorate il perdono,
    Così la vostra indulgenza metta me in libertà.”
    William Shakespeare, The Tempest

    William Shakespeare
    “Hear my soul speak:
    The very instant that I saw you did

    Am I this patient log-man.”
    William Shakespeare, The Tempest

  • #12

    Cassandra Clare
    “Black for hunting through the night

    For death and mourning the color's white

    Gold for a bride in her wedding gown

    And red to call the enchantment down

    White silk when our bodies burn

    Blue banners when the lost return

    Flame for the birth of a Nephilim

    And to wash away our sins.

    Gray for the knowledge best untold

    Bone for those who don't grow old

    Saffron lights the victory march

    Green to mend our broken hearts

    Silver for the demon towers

    And bronze to summon wicked powers

    -Shadowhunter children's rhyme”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Heavenly Fire

    “Treats and tricks.
    Witch broomsticks.
    Jack-o-lanterns

    in mud, I suppose.”

    Normal's unnatural on Halloween!”
