More quotes by William Shakespeare
All things are ready, if our mind be so.
William Shakespeare
I shall despair. There is no creature loves me And if I die no soul will pity me: And wherefore should they, since that I myself Find in myself no pity to myself?
William Shakespeare
He does me double wrong That wounds me with the flatteries of his tongue.
William Shakespeare
God defend me from that Welsh fairy, Lest he transform me to a piece of cheese!
William Shakespeare
I'll never Be such a gosling to obey instinct, but stand As is a man were author of himself And knew no other kin.
William Shakespeare
There's nothing in this world can make me joy: Life is as tedious as a twice-told tale Vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man And bitter shame hath spoil'd the sweet world's taste That it yields nought but shame and bitterness.
William Shakespeare
As true as steel, as plantage to the moon, As sun to day, at turtle to her mate, As iron to adamant, as earth to centre.
William Shakespeare
I am disgraced, impeached, and baffled here, Pierced to the soul with slander's venomed spear.
William Shakespeare
Mercy is not itself, that oft looks so Pardon is still the nurse of second woe.
William Shakespeare
Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.
William Shakespeare
In thy face I see the map of honour, truth and loyalty.
William Shakespeare
This was the noblest Roman of them all. All the conspirators, save only he,Did that they did in envy of CaesarHe only, in a general honest thoughtAnd common good to all, made one of them. His life was gentle, and the elementsSo mixd in him that Nature might stand upAnd say to all the world, This was a man!
William Shakespeare
Drown thyself? Drown cats and blind puppies.
William Shakespeare
Thrift, thrift, Horatio! The funeral bak'd meats did coldly furnish forth the marriage tables.
William Shakespeare
Your lordship, though not clean past your youth, have yet some smack of age in you, some relish of the saltiness of time.
William Shakespeare
I am a great eater of beef, and I believe that does harm to my wit.
William Shakespeare
The tongues of dying men enforce attention like deep harmony.
William Shakespeare
If I for my opinion bleed, opinion shall be surgeon to my hurt, and keep me on the side where still I am.
William Shakespeare
I praise God for you, sir: your reasons at dinner have been sharp and sententious pleasant without scurrility, witty without affectation, audacious without impudency, learned without opinion, and strange with-out heresy.
William Shakespeare
These are the forgeries of jealousy And never, since the middle summer's spring, Met we on hill, in dale, forest, or mead, By paved fountain or by rushy brook, Or in the beached margent of the sea, To dance our ringlets to the whistling wind, But with thy brawls thou hast disturbed our sport.
William Shakespeare
