“Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.”
― William Shakespeare, Henry IV, Part Two

“My death's sad tale may yet undeaf his ear.”
― William Shakespeare, King Richard II

“The language I have learn'd these forty years, My native English, now I must forego: And now my tongue's use is to me no more Than an unstringed viol or a harp, Or like a cunning instrument cased up, Or, being open, put into his hands That knows no touch to tune the harmony: Within my mouth you have engaol'd my tongue, Doubly portcullis'd with my teeth and lips; And dull unfeeling barren ignorance Is made my gaoler to attend on me. I am too old to fawn upon a nurse, Too far in years to be a pupil now: What is thy sentence then but speechless death, Which robs my tongue from breathing native breath?”
― William Shakespeare

“No, good my lord; let's fight with gentle words Till time lend friends, and friends their helpful swords.”
― William Shakespeare, King Richard II
