She wish'd she had not heard it, yet she wish'd
  That heaven had made her such a man: She thank'd me,
    And bade me, if I had a friend that lov'd her,
      I should but teach him how to tell my story
        And that would woo her.
      - [Wooing]

Short time seems long in sorrow's sharp sustaining; though woe be heavy, yet it seldom sleeps, and they who watch see time how slow it creeps.
      - [Sorrow]

Shortly his fortune shall be lifted higher;
  True industry doth kindle honour's fire.
      - [Industry]

Should the poor be flattered? No; let the candied tongue lick absurd pomp, and crook the pregnant hinges of the knee where thrift may follow fawning.
      - [Flattery]

Show you sweet Caesar's wounds, poor, poor dumb mouths,
  And bid them speak for me.
      - [Wounds]

Sick in the world's regard, wretched and low.
      - [Despair]

Silence is only commendable
  In a neat's tongue dried, and a maid not vendible.
      - [Silence]

Silence often of pure innocence
  Persuades, when speaking fails.
      - [Silence]

Sin will pluck on sin.
      - [Sin]

Sin, that amends, is but patched with virtue.
      - [Reformation]

Since brevity is the soul of wit, and tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes--I will be brief.
      - [Brevity]

Since you will buckle fortune on my back,
  To bear her burden whe'r I will or no,
    I must have patience to endure the load.
      - [Fortune]

Sky-aspiring and ambitious thoughts.
      - [Thought]

Slander lives upon succession, forever housed where it gets possession.
      - [Slander]

Slander'd to death by villains,
  That dare as well answer a man indeed
    As I dare take a serpent by the tongue:
      Boys, apes, braggarts, Jacks, milksops!
      - [Slander]

Slander's mark was ever yet the fair;
  The ornament of beauty is suspect,
    A crow that flies in heaven's sweetest air,
      So thou be good, slander doth but approve
        Thy worth the greater.
      - [Slander]

Slander,
  Whose edge is sharper than the sword; whose tongue
    Out-venoms all the worms of Nile; whose breath
      Rides on the posting winds, and doth belie
        All corners of the world: kings, queens, and states,
          Maids, matrons, nay, the secrets of the grave
            This viperous slander enters.
      - [Slander]

Slander, whose whisper over the world's diameter, as level as the cannon to its blank, transports its poisoned shot.
      - [Slander]

Sleep dwell upon thine eyes, peace in thy breast!
  Would I were sleep and peace, so sweet to rest.
      - [Sleep]

Sleep, gentle sleep, nature's soft nurse, how have I frighted thee, that thou no more wilt weigh my eyelids down, and steep my senses in forgetfulness?
      - [Sleep]

Sleep, that knits up the raveled sleave of care, the death of each day's life, sore labor's bath, balm of hurt minds, great nature's second course, chief nourisher in life's feast.
      - [Sleep]

Sleep, that sometimes shuts up sorrow's eye.
      - [Sleep]

Slips of yew, silvered in the moon's eclipse.
      - [Trees]

So Judas kiss'd his Master,
  And cried--All hail! when as he meant--all harm.
      - [Treason]

So light a foot will ne'er wear out the everlasting flint.
      - [Feet]
