More quotes by William Shakespeare
True, I talk of dreams, Which are the children of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy, Which is as thin of substance as the air, And more inconstant than the wind, who woos Even now the frozen bosom of the north, And, being anger'd, puffs away from thence, Turning his side to the dew-dropping south.
William Shakespeare
Oh why rebuke you him that loves you so? / Lay breath so bitter on your bitter foe.
William Shakespeare
Like one who draws the model of a house beyond his power to build it who, half through, gives o'er, and leaves his part-created cost a naked subject to the weeping clouds.
William Shakespeare
A jest's prosperity lies in the ear
William Shakespeare
This liberty is all that I request.
William Shakespeare
To show an unfelt sorrow is an office Which the false man does easy.
William Shakespeare
What win I, if I gain the thing I seek? A dream, a breath, a froth of fleeting joy. Who buys a minute's mirth to wail a week? Or sells eternity to get a toy? For one sweet grape who will the vine destroy? Or what fond beggar, but to touch the crown, Would with the sceptre straight be strucken down?
William Shakespeare
When we mean to build, We first survey the plot, then draw the model And when we see the figure of the house, Then must we rate the cost of the erection.
William Shakespeare
Love, which teacheth me that thou and I am one
William Shakespeare
I do begin to have bloody thoughts.
William Shakespeare
Friendship is constant in all other things, save in the office and affairs of love.
William Shakespeare
Life's uncertain voyage.
William Shakespeare
To fear the worst oft cures the worst.
William Shakespeare
Let each man do his best.
William Shakespeare
O excellent! I love long life better than figs.
William Shakespeare
Set honour in one eye and death i' the other, And I will look on both indifferently.
William Shakespeare
Wise men never sit and wail their loss, but cheerily seek how to redress their harms.
William Shakespeare
Now, neighbor confines, purge you of your scum! Have you a ruffian that will swear, drink, dance, revel the night, rob, murder, and commit the oldest sins the newest kind of ways?
William Shakespeare
The mind of guilt is full of scorpions.
William Shakespeare
Brutus, I do observe you now of late: I have not from your eyes that gentleness And show of love as I was wont to have: You bear too stubborn and too strange a hand Over your friend that loves you. Poor Brutus, with himself at war, Forgets the shows of love to other men.
William Shakespeare
