“For when my outward action doth demonstrate
The native act and figure of my heart
In complement extern 'tis not long after
But I will wear my heart upon my sleeve
For daws to peck at I am not what I am.”
― Othello
The native act and figure of my heart
In complement extern 'tis not long after

For daws to peck at I am not what I am.”

“I wasted time, and now doth time waste me;
For now hath time made me his numbering clock:
My thoughts are minutes; and with sighs they jar
Their watches on unto mine eyes, the outward watch,
Whereto my finger, like a dial's point,
Is pointing still, in cleansing them from tears.
Now sir, the sound that tells what hour it is
Are clamorous groans, which strike upon my heart,
Which is the bell: so sighs and tears and groans
Show minutes, times, and hours.”
― Richard II
