More quotes by William Shakespeare
There is a world elsewhere.
William Shakespeare
He took the bride about the neck and kissed her lips with such a clamorous smack that at the parting all the church did echo.
William Shakespeare
Virtue is beauty, but the beauteous evil. Are empty trunks o'erflourished by the devil.
William Shakespeare
If circumstances lead me, I will find Where truth is hid, though it were hid indeed Within the centre.
William Shakespeare
O that men's ears should be To counsel deaf but not to flattery!
William Shakespeare
What win I, if I gain the thing I seek? A dream, a breath, a froth of fleeting joy. Who buys a minute's mirth to wail a week? Or sells eternity to get a toy? For one sweet grape who will the vine destroy? Or what fond beggar, but to touch the crown, Would with the sceptre straight be strucken down?
William Shakespeare
I fill up a place, which may be better... when I have made it empty.
William Shakespeare
To bed, to bed sleep kill those pretty eyes, And give as soft attachment to thy senses, As infants empty of all thought.
William Shakespeare
Have you not love enough to bear with me, when that rash humor which my mother gave me makes me forgetful.
William Shakespeare
I’ll look to like, if looking liking move But no more deep will I endart mine eye than your consent gives strength to make it fly.
William Shakespeare
To stand against the deep dread-bolted thunder, In the most terrible and nimble stroke Of quick, cross lightning.
William Shakespeare
Here feel we but the penalty of Adam, The seasons' difference, as the icy fang And churlish chiding of the winter's wind, Which, when it bites and blows upon my body, Even till I shrink with cold, I smile.
William Shakespeare
I will make a Star-chamber matter of it.
William Shakespeare
The curse of marriage That we can call these delicate creatures ours And not their appetites!
William Shakespeare
To mourn a mischief that is past and gone Is the next way to draw new mischief on.
William Shakespeare
I will do anything, Nerissa, ere I'll be married to a sponge.
William Shakespeare
Fie, thou dishonest Satan! I call thee by the most modest terms for I am one of those gentle ones that will use the devil himself with courtesy: sayest thou that house is dark?
William Shakespeare
Then love-devouring Death do what he dare.
William Shakespeare
The art of our necessities is strange That can make vile things precious.
William Shakespeare
He hath disgrac'd me and hind'red me half a million laugh'd at my losses, mock'd at my gains, scorned my nation, thwarted my bargains, cooled my friends, heated my enemies. And what's his reason? I am a Jew.
