"Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow / Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, / [...] Out, out, brief candle! / Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player / That struts and frets his hour upon the stage / And then is heard no more. It is a tale / Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury / Signifying nothing." (V.v.19-28)

"The night is long that never finds the day." (IV.iii.240)

"By the pricking of my thumbs, / Something wicked this way comes: / Open, locks, / Whoever knocks!" (IV.i.44-47)

"Double, double, toil and trouble; / Fire burn and cauldron bubble." (IV.i.10-11)

"Away, and mock the time with fairest show: / False face must hide what the false heart doth know." (I.vii.81-82)

"Your face, my Thane, is a book where men / May read strange matters. To beguile the time, / Look like the time; bear welcome in your eye, / Your hand, your tongue: look like th' innocent flower, / But be the serpent under 't." (I.iv.62-68)

"Stars, hide your fires; / Let not light see my black and deep desires. / The eye wink at the hand; yet let that be / Which the eye fears, when it is done, to see." (I.iv.50-53)
