Ah me, how weak a thing The heart of woman is!
William Shakespeare
A violet in the youth of primy nature, Forward, not permanent--sweet, not lasting The perfume and suppliance of a minute No more.
William Shakespeare
A college of wit-crackers cannot flout me out of my humor. Dost thou think I care for a satire or an epigram?
William Shakespeare
Yield not thy neck To fortunes yoke, but let thy dauntless mind Still ride in triumph over all mischance.
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
Strikes deeper, grows with more pernicious root.
William Shakespeare
What man dare, I dare. Approach thou like the rugged Russian bear, The armed rhinoceros, or th' Hyrcan tiger Take any shape but that, and my firm nerves Shall never tremble.

It is thyself, mine own self's better part Mine eye's clear eye, my dear heart's dearer heart My food, my fortune, and my sweet hope's aim, My sole earth's heaven, and my heaven's claim.
William Shakespeare
If thou dost love, proclaim it faithfully.
William Shakespeare
This day I breathed first: time is come round, And where I did begin there shall I end My life is run his compass.
William Shakespeare
How slow This old moon wanes! she lingers my desires, Like to a stepdame, or a dowager, Long withering out a young man's revenue.
William Shakespeare
O wretched state! o bosom black as death!
William Shakespeare
By that sin fell the angels.
William Shakespeare
If wishes would prevail with me, my purpose should not fail with me.
William Shakespeare
Here will be an old abusing of God's patience and the king's English.
William Shakespeare
