Famous quotes containing the words high and/or weight:
“Esteem must be founded on preference: to hold everyone in high esteem is to esteem nothing.”

“Now mark me how I will undo myself.
I give this heavy weight from off my head,
And this unwieldy sceptre from my hand,
The pride of kingly sway from out my heart.
With mine own tears I wash away my balm,
With mine own hands I give away my crown.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
