William Shakespeare Smooth Quotations

The thorny point Of bare distress hath ta'en from me the show Of smooth civility; yet am I inland bred And know some nurture.

The path is smooth that leadeth on to danger.

Therefore, to be possessed with double pomp,To guard a title that was rich before,To gild refined gold, to paint the lily,To throw a perfume on the violet,To smooth the ice, or add another hueUnto the rainbow, or with taper lightTo seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish,Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.
