More quotes by William Shakespeare
O sleep, O gentle sleep, Nature's soft nurse, how have I frightened thee, 1710. That thou no more will weigh my eyelids down, And steep my senses in forgetfulness?
William Shakespeare
O' thinkest thou we shall ever meet again? I doubt it not and all these woes shall serve For sweet discourses in our times to come.
William Shakespeare
Remembrance of things past.
William Shakespeare
Yet but three come one more. Two of both kinds make up four. Ere she comes curst and sad. Cupid is a knavish lad. Thus to make poor females mad.
William Shakespeare
My dull brain was wrought with things forgotten.
William Shakespeare
He hath borne himself beyond the promise of his age, doing, in the figure of a lamb, the feats of a lion.
William Shakespeare
The fringed curtains of thine eye advance, And say what thou seest yond.
William Shakespeare
I am not merry, but I do beguile the thing I am by seeming otherwise.
William Shakespeare
This day's black fate on more days doth depend This but begins the woe, others must end.
William Shakespeare
I know them, yea, And what they weigh, even to the utmost scruple Scambling, out-facing, fashion-mong'ring boys, That lie, and cog, and flout, deprave, and slander, Go antickly, and show outward hideousness, And speak off half a dozen dangerous words, How they might hurt their enemies, if they durst And this is all.
William Shakespeare
Be merry you have cause, so have we all, of joy for our escape is much beyond our loss . . . . then wisely weigh our sorrow with our comfort.
William Shakespeare
I speak of peace, while covert enmity under the smile of safety wounds the world
William Shakespeare
Ideas are the very coinage of your brain.
William Shakespeare
Is it not strange, that sheep's guts should hale souls out of men's bodies!
William Shakespeare
Like as the waves make towards the pebbl'd shore, so do our minutes, hasten to their end.
William Shakespeare
When law can do no right, Let it be lawful that law bar no wrong.
William Shakespeare
I have heard of some kind of men that put quarrels purposely on others, to taste their valor.
William Shakespeare
I, measuring his affections by my own, Which then most sought where most might not be found, Being one too many by my weary self, Pursued my humor not pursuing his, And gladly shunned who gladly fled from me.
William Shakespeare
When I have plucked the rose, I cannot give it vital growth again, It needs must wither. I'll smell it on the tree.
William Shakespeare
Appetite, a universal wolf.
