In Shakespeare's Henry IV, Part 2, act 3, scene 1, the king has a soliloquy. It begins, "How many thousand of my poorest subjects / Are at this hour asleep! O sleep, O gentle sleep, . . ." At the end, he declares, "Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown." My Web searches cannot find the source of the *extremely* widespread MISquotation above. I'm guessing there's contamination from the party game of "Heavy, heavy hangs over thy head" (see http://childrenparty.com/partygames/printversion/forfeits.html and very differently http://www.mythicjourneys.org/mythkids_oct06_halloween_forfeits.html ), but that's all it is--a guess. Web searches on "heavy hangs" "uneasy lies" head wear crown yield nothing useful.

The exact text is copied from the web-site, and author is usually anonymous. I know that we should introduce the source and reference, but I also think that quotation marks are necessary too. My friend does not mean so.

I need a quote that "sums up my class experience in english this year." basically a quote that talks about potential, the future, learning, or almost anything motivational. An example is Walt Whitman's "the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse." Any suggestions?
