More quotes by William Shakespeare
It is war's prize to take all vantages And ten to one is no impeach of valor.
William Shakespeare
Present mirth hath present laughter. What's to come is still unsure.
William Shakespeare
World, world, O world! But that thy strange mutations make us hate thee/ Life would not yield to age.
William Shakespeare
The breaking of so great a thing should make A greater crack: the round world Should have shook lions into civil streets, And citizens to their dens.
William Shakespeare
If thou dost seek to have what thou dost hide, By self-example mayst thou be denied.
William Shakespeare
I myself am best When least in company.
William Shakespeare
If it were done when 'tis done, then 'twere well. It were done quickly.
William Shakespeare
Honest plain words best pierce the ear of grief.
William Shakespeare
They that stand high have many blasts to shake them.
William Shakespeare
There is a time in the affairs of men, Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune.
William Shakespeare
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep To sleep, perchance to dream—For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause, there's the respect, That makes calamity of so long life
William Shakespeare
When my love swears that she is made of truth, I do believe her, though I know she lies.
William Shakespeare
There's little of the melancholy element in her, my lord: she is never sad but when she sleeps and not ever sad then for I have heard my daughter say, she hath often dreamt of unhappiness, and waked herself with laughing.
William Shakespeare
Nothing emboldens sin so much as mercy.
William Shakespeare
Women are as roses, whose fair flower, being once displayed, doth fall that very hour.
William Shakespeare
Would I were in an alehouse in London.
William Shakespeare
Indeed, sir, he that sleeps feels not the toothache but a man that were to sleep your sleep, and a hangman to help him to bed, I think he would change places with his officer for look you, sir, you know not which way you shall go.
William Shakespeare
This England never did, nor never shall, Lie at the proud foot of a conqueror, But when it first did help to wound itself. Now these her princes are come home again, Come the three corners of the world in arms, And we shall shock them. Nought shall make us rue, If England to itself do rest but true.
William Shakespeare
Their savage eyes turned to a modest gaze by the sweet power of music.
William Shakespeare
Why should honor outlive honestly? Orthello
