SHAKESPEARE ON ANGER, DOUBT &SORROW




ANGER:
To climb steep hills,
Requires slow pace at first: anger is like
A full hot horse, who being allowed his way,
Self-mettle tires him.

DOUBT:
The wound of peace is surety,
Surety secure; but modest doubt is call’d
The beacon of the wise, the tent that searches
To the bottom of the worst
  
SORROW:
Sorrow breaks seasons, and reposing hours,
Makes the night morning, and the noon-tide night
