More quotes by William Shakespeare
Do not, as some ungracious pastors do, Show me the steep and thorny way to heaven Whilst, like a puff'd and reckless libertine, Himself the primrose path of dalliance treads And recks not his own read.
William Shakespeare
There should be hours for necessities, not for delights times to repair our nature with comforting repose, and not for us to waste these times.
William Shakespeare
Haply a woman's voice may do some good When articles too nicely urged be stood on.
William Shakespeare
Fortune is merry, And in this mood will give us anything.
William Shakespeare
For who so firm that cannot be seduced?
William Shakespeare
Misery makes sport to mock itself.

William Shakespeare
Beauty is but a vain and doubtful good a shining gloss that fadeth suddenly a flower that dies when it begins to bud a doubtful good, a gloss, a glass, a flower, lost, faded, broken, dead within an hour.
William Shakespeare
You are not wood, you are not stones, but men.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
But shall we wear these glories for a day? Or shall they last, and we rejoice in them?
William Shakespeare
Thou shalt be free As mountain winds: but then exactly do All points of my command.
William Shakespeare
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. If this be error and upon me prov'd, I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd.
William Shakespeare
