William Shakespeare Quotes:
Ocupation: Poet
Life: 1564 - April 23, 1616
Birthday: 1564
Death: April 23
Yet nor the lays of birds nor the sweet smell Of different flowers in odour and in hue Could make me any summer's story tell, Or from their proud lap pluck them where they grew; Nor did I wonder at the lily's white, Nor praise the deep vermilion in the rose; They were but sweet, but figures of delight, Drawn after you, you pattern of all those.
