- "this above all: to thine own self be true."
- "— with thoughts beyond the reaches of our souls?"
- "nymph, in thy orisons, be all my sins remembered."
- "... for wise men know well enough what monsters you make of them."
- "madness in great ones must not unwatched go."
- "for women fear too much, even as they love."
- "oh heart, lose not thy nature."
- "we know what we are but know not what we may be."
