More quotes by William Shakespeare
Coward dogs most spend their mouths when what they seem to threaten runs far before them.
William Shakespeare
A fellow by the hand of nature mark'd, Quoted, and sign'd, to do a deed of shame.
William Shakespeare
Things bad begun make strong themselves by ill.
William Shakespeare
Ingrateful man with liquorish draughts, and morsels unctuous, greases his pure mind that from it all consideration slips.
William Shakespeare
GLOUCESTER: Yet so much is my poverty of spirit, So mighty and so many my defects, As I had rather hide me from my greatness, Being a bark to brook no mighty sea, Than in my greatness covet to be hid, And in the vapour of my glory smother'd. But God be thanked. . . .
William Shakespeare
Go, write it in a martial hand be curst and brief it is no matter how witty, so it be eloquent and fun of invention: taunt him with the licence of ink: if thou thou'st him some thrice, it shall not be amiss and as many lies as will lie in thy shee.
William Shakespeare
Come my spade. There is no ancient gentlemen but gardeners, ditchers, and grave-makers they hold up Adam's profession.
William Shakespeare
We will meet and there we may rehearse most obscenely and courageously.
William Shakespeare
Nature her custom holds, Let shame say what it will.
William Shakespeare
From you have I been absent in the spring, When proud pied April, dressed in all his trim, Hath put a spirit of youth in every thing.
William Shakespeare
Love goes toward love.
William Shakespeare
Time, that takes survey of all the world, Must have a stop.
William Shakespeare
For man is a giddy thing, and this is my conclusion.
William Shakespeare
The seasons alter: hoary-headed frosts Fall in the fresh lap of the crimson rose, And on old Hiems' thin and icy crown An odorous chaplet of sweet summer buds Is, as in mockery, set. The spring, the summer, The childing autumn, angry winter, change Their wonted liveries, and the mazed world, By their increase, now knows not which is which.
William Shakespeare
Who is Silvia What is she, That all our swains commend her Holy, fair, and wise is she.
William Shakespeare
My pride fell with my fortunes.
William Shakespeare
For as a surfeit of the sweetest things The deepest loathing to the stomach brings, Or as tie heresies that men do leave Are hated most of those they did deceive, So thou, my surfeit and my heresy, Of all be hated, but the most of me!
William Shakespeare
Love surfeits not, Lust like a glutton dies Love is all truth, Lust full of forged lies
William Shakespeare
We must not make a scarecrow of the law, Setting it up to fear the birds of prey, And let it keep one shape till custom make it Their perch, and not their terror.
William Shakespeare
Refrain to-night And that shall lend a kind of easiness To the next abstinence, the next more easy For use almost can change the stamp of nature, And either master the devil or throw him out With wondrous potency.
William Shakespeare
