As honour, love, obedience, troops of friends, / I must not look to have but, in their stead, / Curses, not loud but deep, mouth-honour, breath, / Which the poor heart would fain deny, and dare not (5.3.25-28).

William Shakespeare
Hide not thy poison with such sugar'd words
William Shakespeare
This man, lady, hath robb'd many beasts of their particular additions: he is as valiant as a lion, churlish as the bear, slow as the elephant-a man into whom nature hath so crowded humours that his valour is crush'd into folly, his folly sauced with discretion.
William Shakespeare
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips, Straining upon the start. The game's afoot Follow your spirit: and upon this charge, Cry — God for Harry! England and Saint George!
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Wish chastely, and love dearly.
William Shakespeare
God send everyone their heart's desire!
William Shakespeare
I knew when seven justices could not take up a quarrel, but when the parties were met themselves, one of them thought but of an If, as, 'If you said so, then I said so' and they shook hands and swore brothers. Your If is the only peacemaker much virtue in If.
William Shakespeare
We bring forth weeds when our quick minds lie still.
William Shakespeare
Passion makes the will lord of the reason.
William Shakespeare
Make the upcoming hour overflow with joy, and let pleasure drown the brim.
William Shakespeare
Methought I heard a voice cry 'Sleep no more! Macbeth does murder sleep', the innocent sleep, Sleep that knits up the ravell'd sleeve of care, The death of each day's life, sore labour's bath, Balm of hurt minds, great nature's second course, Chief nourisher in life's feast...
William Shakespeare
The elephant hath joints, but none for courtesy his legs are legs for necessity, not for flexure.
William Shakespeare
