For aught that I could ever read,Could ever hear by tale or history,The course of true love never did run smooth.

Life is 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 tall Tale, Told by an Idiot, full of Sound and Fury, Signifying nothing.'
William Shakespeare
Life is as tedious as a twice-told tale Vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man.
William Shakespeare
Life is a tale told by an idiot - full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
William Shakespeare
An honest tale speeds best, being plainly told.
William Shakespeare
The man who comes with a tale about others has himself an ax to grind.
Chinese Proverb
I am among those who think that science has great beauty. A scientist in his laboratory is not only a technician: he is also a child placed before natural phenomena which impress him like a fairy tale.
Marie Curie
Life itself is the most wonderful fairy tale.
Hans Christian Andersen
I couldn't be more excited for her. It's really a fairy-tale story.
Gunnar Brolinson
He has not yet become an elder statesman, though his foreign policy credentials are considerable, but he is certainly our ancient mariner, forever tugging at our sleeve to let him tell his tale of what really happened.
Ronald Steel
That was the tale of the game.
Rene Lafreniere
I'm just enjoying it right now. I don't even know what to say. It's like a fairy tale. I never thought this would happen.
Jason Pyle
That a former U.S. congressman couldn't overcome a late start should be a cautionary tale to any other potential latecomers.
John Simpkins
The entire story of 'Elizabethtown' arrived quickly, ... a tale of love and loss and the discovery of family roots in the aftermath of a very black turn of events in the life of a young shoe designer, Orlando Bloom. It was a story that would start with an ending and end with a beginning and, I hoped, give a sense of what it was to be truly alive.
Cameron Crowe
That's kind of been the tale of our season. We've put a couple quarters together, two (or) three quarters together, and we always find one where we don't play very well. We came out heavy footed and didn't get much done in that first half. We have to find a way to put four quarters together.
Jon Monti
It was a tale of two halves for us. We could not do much that first half, especially the first quarter. We were really out of synch offensively and they capitalized on some chances we gave them with turnovers.
Chris Lander
My secret ambition was always to provide music for animation films: something with an Indian theme, either a fairy tale or mythological tale or on the Krishna theme. I still have a very deep desire, but these sorts of chances don't always come.
Ravi Shankar
I see this as something of a morality tale, and men who earn their livelihood doing illegal things. The moral choices that they make in their life, the things that they decide to do the right thing about, I think is pretty compelling. There's something that's a universal truth in that.
Norman Morrill
Literature is where I go to explore the highest and lowest places in human society and in the human spirit, where I hope to find not absolute truth but the truth of the tale, of the imagination and of the heart.
Salman Rushdie
A Whale of a Tale.
Kirk Douglas
We view this as a fairy tale ... a story about damsels who have to fight off the dragons in their lives.
Chris Willard
(Today) will tell the tale. You're starting to get into serious money.
Hugo Papstein
The Tale of Peter Rabbit.
Beatrix Potter
I respect Garth a ton, and I know that he does a great job with those guys. Every time that we play them, I am very concerned. Sometimes the score doesn't tell the tale. Tonight we got a little bit of a jump on them early and we built a lead, but the first two games were closer.
Doug Scheidt
'Twas Christmas broach'd the mightiest ale; 'Twas Christmas told the merriest tale; A Christmas gambol oft could cheer The poorest man's heart thru half the year.
Sir Walter Scott
So the whole thrust of any kind of reportage of the Royal Family, certainly in the tabloids, it may have been intrusive in terms of the way you define it, but it was certainly very laudatory and it really maintained and expanded the fairy tale.
Andrew Morton
This is really a tale of two job markets.
Marc Levesque
For me, As You Like It is like an ancient tale, it's like the myth of human existence, really. The myth of courtship, of love and of marriage.
Dean Gilmour
It was a tale of two halves. The first half, we came out flat and couldn't hit anything. They (North Stars) were scoring, it almost seemed, at will. At halftime, I challenged the girls to come out to play with a lot of pride and heart and not to give up. There was a lot of basketball to play. I'm very proud of them.
Gina Nolan
It's a cautionary tale. V says people should not be afraid of their governments, governments should be afraid of their people. That is the essence of the story.
Joel Silver
It has been an oversimplified tale.
Kelly Dixon
I think a lot of people are in a wait-and-see mode. The next couple of weeks are really going to tell the tale.
Wade Jessen
It was a tale of two halves. We just stepped it up in the second half.
Gary Justason
Sainthood emerges when you can listen to someone's tale of woe and not respond with a description of your own.
Andrew V. Mason
This story about that makes absolutely no sense. This is a story likened to a fairy tale in their marijuana-soaked minds.
Dion Custis
From the beginning of the game, we really didn't give much. We weren't hitting, or anything like that. That's a tell-tale sign right away that we weren't into it.
Gino Guyer
These were not crimes of moral turpitude - they were management issues. This is a cautionary tale. The business of law is as important as the practice of law.
Mark Dubois
It was like we literally just wore them down. They had their hands on their hips, the tell-tale signs.
Todd Shirley
It was a tale of two stocks.
Irwin Michael
Largely a bluff. A fairy tale.
Vladimir Yevseyev
You've got these tell-tale signs. People are locking it up unexpectedly.
William Lambert
The story, of course, is the well-known children's tale, and the music is appropriate for very young children, who are able to follow the story, and the more sophisticated musical audience. There's definitely an appeal for families who might be nervous about viewing opera for the first time, and the seasoned audiences who are more experienced with traditional musical scores.
Linda Dobbs
It's basically a morality tale. It's all about morals and values. It just happens to be done topless.
Gina Gershon
I am confounded by the tortured tale of these negotiations. It is unfortunate that it had to come down to an illegal strike.
Justice Theodore Jones
Every man's life is a fairy-tale written by God's fingers.
Hans Christian Andersen
Well, the first question you all are going to ask me is, how did we beat Minnesota and play Carolina so close? It's a tale of two teams. Ohio State just took it to us tonight and we didn't have an answer for them. A lot of it had to do with Ohio State .
Rick Scruggs
The author is writing about the people within the Mercury series. They are two different perspectives of the same story that are part of a broader tale that is going to be a full-length independent film.
Craig Stacey
I think that our momentum right now should be a cautionary tale to the anti-choice community to not overplay their hand and this agenda they've put forth, to be frank, if they really initiate that agenda, I believe they will be overplaying their hand, and we will come back at the ballot box in November and be successful.
Tim Stanley
Beowulf is a timeless, epic tale of heroism and triumph. Digital rendering will allow us to depict this incredible story in ways we would never have dared imagine.
Robert Zemeckis
This past week's strong sales numbers prove that Black Friday is not the tall tale sign it used to be as an indicator for holiday spending.
Wayne Best
In retrospect, I can understand that he just felt like there was no way out. It's a very sad tale.
George Maloof
I want to see how we bounce back from this. That will tell what kind of team we really have. When you lose to a division opponent, 38-6, now I want to see how we react when we go to Tampa. That's going to tell the tale of what this team is really about.
Damien Woody
The cautionary tale is that this is probably the start of some huge traffic spikes, and I hope that companies have their act together infrastructure-wise to meet this.
Allen Weiner
It's a fairy tale come true, ain't it? And she's got great legs. What more can you ask for?
David Rosenthal
If you see the magic in a fairy tale, you can face the future.
Danielle Steel
It has a jazzy sound; it's a brighter, more modern fairy tale than a lot of shows we've done.
Tim Holmes
It's been a twisted tale in the last couple days that I don't pretend to fully understand.
Roger Gibbins
Not only will this impact this industry, but it's a cautionary tale for other physician joint ventures.
William Wright
Much ink has been spent on the tale of getting the show to the screen, ... The proof is in the product, however, and we say without reservation it is a series that charts entirely new ground in terms of scope and ambition, yet remains rooted firmly in the fundamentals of solid characters and well-told stories.
Carolyn Strauss
It's trying to change 70 years of perception that an animated movie isn't a fairy tale and doesn't have dancing tea cups and...funny camels.
Jeffrey Katzenberg
I was a great reader of fairy tales. I tried to read the entire fairy tale section of the library: Andrew Lang's Blue Fairy Book, Red Fairy Book, and so on, probably down to the Puce or Chartreuse fairy tales.
Beverly Cleary
The tale is a classic whodunit which seeks to unravel the mystery of who killed inflation. The only problem is that neither the body nor the murder weapon have been identified.
Adam Blankman
The Professor and the Madman: A Tale of Murder, Insanity, and the Making of the Oxford English Dictionary.
Simon Winchester
It started off as a hobby. I was never one to do much fishing and hunting. On occasion I did. I was mostly a homebody with a fairy tale marriage. To tell you the truth I was an egghead growing up. I was a bookworm. I kept my head in books, a sort of introverted type person.
Gerald Pruitt
This next one pretty much tells the tale of our season.
Todd Kimble
A Haunting Tale of Terror!
The Others
The tale is probably over 100 years old and told all around the world. Its theme is common among all races and people -- you have to overcome fear on your own.
Nancy Davis
It's a wonderful tale of redemption. Do they want lines that are a little more challenging than 'Oh, here's the pool guy...'?
David Lyle
It's a tale of two cities right now.
Roger Ogden
It really was a tale of two halves. We changed ourselves up tactically changed our shape on the field, just changed everything.
Ashley Edgar
It's a very dark tale of greed, betrayal and revenge in Bulgaria - all with a brain transplant!
Bruce Campbell
As with the Arthurian tale it evokes.
Ronald Steel
It was a tale of two halves. We lost our defensive intensity and they took advantage of that.
Brian Meneely
It's sort of an often-told sad tale of a band dumping the person who greatly contributed to making them successful so they don't have to pay him.
Howard King
I got a feeling that it's a root story, a fable, a fairy tale, that we all recognize subliminally perhaps. And consequently we don't mind hearing it again and again and again.
Richard O'brien
I don't know how good he is, but he's a great running back. He has a great future ahead of him. I've never seen this happen. I've never seen a kid go from an unknown commodity to pretty much being able to name whatever school he wanted to attend. It was like a fairy tale to him.
Billy Turner
This is fun. I couldn't have scripted it this way. I'm just hoping for a fairy tale ending.
Aaron Small
No matter how much they scammed, how much they lied or how much they manipulated, the kids always did the right thing. If nobody does anything wrong, you can't have a morality tale.
Peter Engel
Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels/ The dizzy dancing way you feel/ As every fairy tale comes real/ I've looked at love that way.
Joni Mitchell
It's not a depressing play; both of them do get on with the business of living. But it's not a fairy tale. It's for anyone who has loved and lost — and everyone has.
Stephen Gee
It's a very complicated story. It still is, even as the trial approaches. My job was to let everyone in on what was going on. With these types of stories, you can get lost in the details when there is a bigger tale to be told. I felt a film could really do that.
Alex Gibney
I was excited to discover, in this tale by Eliade, the key themes that I most hope to understand better: time, consciousness and the dreamlike basis of reality.
Francis Ford Coppola
It's a tale of two teams. We just need to put it together.
Jason Fojt
Never trust the artist. Trust the tale.
D. H. Lawrence
I want people to take away from this book that it is in your power to change your love life. You can control having a happy ending to your own fairy tale if you follow my program and are willing to put in the work.
Nancy Slotnick
This season has really been a tale of two seasons for me.
Ricky Craven
It was a tale of two halves. We weren't in sync and not working as a team in the first half. The girls made the decision to come out and play more productive in the second half.
George Tullier
It's a tale that I believe ultimately speaks of good parenting and what it means to honor one's parents.
Brendan Fraser
The shadow of a mighty Negro past flits through the tale of Ethiopia and of the Egypt the Sphinx. Throughout history, the powers of single blacks flash like falling stars, and die sometimes before the world has rightly gauged their brightness.
W. E. B. Du Bois
It was absolutely a fairy tale ending. You couldn't have asked for anything better. It was a great way to finish his home career.
Terry Holland
Second, this epic tale allows the audience to actually listen to the Native Americans and receive their wisdom. Spielberg conveys the respect for Native Americans that is normally lacking in Western films.
Beau Bridges
You look at our record, obviously it doesn't tell the tale of the Galaxy.
Tyrone Marshall
I definitely have the experience to be the favorite, which is cool, and I'm comfortable with that. But it's going to take a lot to win this one, and if we do, it will certainly be a fairy-tale finish.
Bryan Herta
Anyone who might not like us or what we do would find this tale of our childhood nauseating.
Wallace Shawn
I think it's a wives' tale that there are a larger amount of suicides this time of year.
Dick Bailey
This version of the enchanting fairy tale features an expanded script with eight original songs. The kids have created some original characters as well.
Donna Marcinko
Our team's going to be mainly concentrating on running the bases well and situational hitting. I was just trying to get myself ready to hit and it went out so I was happy with that. It was actually one of the coolest things I've ever done on the field. I grew up coming to this park so it was kind of like a fairy tale.
Ryan Fleming
The 2007 tour will be a modern tale of two cities ... and plans to cement the friendship between our two great capitals.
Christian Prudhomme
It was a tale of two halves. I thought the last eight to 10 minutes we just didn't match up with them physically. We rely so much on speed and quickness and I thought they did a great job making it a physical ballgame. That's what won it for them because we physically couldn't match up.
Joe Konieczny
The story of Jim Braddock continues to be so incredibly stirring because it is a tale that reminds us of just how remarkable human endurance and the power of love can be.
Aaron Howard
I cannot tell how the truth may be; I say the tale as it was said to me.
Sir Walter Scott
The past weeks have shown us how much not only we Germans need this remembrance day. With dismay we have had to note that today, even presidents insist on describing the Holocaust as a fairy tale and go so far as to make anti-Semitic remarks.
Norbert Lammert
Obsessed by a fairy tale, we spend our lives searching for a magic door and a lost kingdom of peace.
Eugene O'neill
Japan's basically a tale of two economies.
Greg Canavan
It was definitely a tale of two halves. They came out really strong in the first half, playing real physical and winning most of the 50-50 balls, while we didn't play with any energy. But we turned it around in the second half and had a number of good chances, including one off the post, but similar to last year we just couldn't put one away.
