Beggars

Famous quotes containing the word beggars:

    1st Murderer. Where’s thy conscience now?...
    2nd Murderer. I’ll not meddle with it. It makes a man a coward.... It fills a man full of obstacles. It made me once restore a purse of gold that by chance I found. It beggars any man that keeps it. It is turned out of towns and cities for a dangerous thing, and every man that means to live well endeavors to trust to himself and live without it.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    When beggars die there are no comets seen;
    The heavens themselves blaze forth the death of princes.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    They are but beggars that can count their worth,
    But my true love is grown to such excess
    I cannot sum up sum of half my wealth.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
