More quotes by William Shakespeare
Crowns have their compass-length of days their date- Triumphs their tomb-felicity, her fate- Of nought but earth can earth make us partaker, But knowledge makes a king most like his Maker.
William Shakespeare
The mightier man, the mightier is the thing That makes him honored or begets him hate For greatest scandal waits on greatest state.
William Shakespeare
Home-keeping youth have ever homely wits.
William Shakespeare
Remember thee! Ay, thou poor ghost, while memory holds a seat In this distracted globe.
William Shakespeare
I do profess to be no less than I seem to serve him truly that will put me in trust: to love him that is honest to converse with him that is wise, and says little to fear judgment to fight when I cannot choose and to eat no fish.
William Shakespeare
In struggling with misfortunes lies the true proof of virtue.
William Shakespeare
A wretched soul, bruised with adversity, We bid be quiet when we hear it cry But were we burdened with light weight of pain, As much or more we should ourselves complain.
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 do not keep the outward form of order, where there is deep disorder in the mind.
William Shakespeare
Angels and ministers of grace defend us.
William Shakespeare
I am wealthy in my friends.
William Shakespeare
Romeo: Courage, man the hurt cannot be much. Mercutio: No, 'tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church-door but 'tis enough, 'twill serve. Ask for me tomorrow, and you shall find me a grave man.
William Shakespeare
When I waked, I cried to dream again
William Shakespeare
The hind that would be mated by the lion Must die for love.
William Shakespeare
I am ill at these numbers.
William Shakespeare
The tyrant custom, most grave senators, Hath made the flinty and steel couch of war My thrice-driven bed of down.
William Shakespeare
A grandma's name is little less in love than is the doting title of a mother.
William Shakespeare
Opinion's but a fool, that makes us scan The outward habit by the inward man.
William Shakespeare
When daffodils begin to peer, With heigh! the doxy, over the dale, Why, then comes in the sweet o' the year For the red blood reigns in the winter's pale. The white sheet bleaching on the hedge, With heigh! the sweet birds, O, how they sing! Doth set my pugging tooth on edge For a quart of ale is a dish for a king.
William Shakespeare
But whate'er I am, nor I nor any man that but man is, With nothing shall be pleased 'til he be eased With being nothing.
William Shakespeare
