Antony and Cleopatra, Act 1, Scene 5: “My salad days,

To say as I said then!”

Вот и несла спокойно этот вздор.]

😀 😀 😀

come what come may - будь что будет
sweet sorrow - сладкая печаль
star-crossed - родившийся под несчастливой звездой
all that glitters is not gold - не всё то золото, что блестит
be-all and end-all - конец и начало всего
the world is your oyster - весь мир – у ваших ног
