More quotes by William Shakespeare
Fear no more the heat o' th' sun Nor the furious winters' rages Thou thy worldly task hast done, Home art gone, and ta'en thy wages. Golden lads and girls all must, As chimney-sweepers, come to dust.
William Shakespeare
Small things make base men proud.
William Shakespeare
My love's more richer than my tongue.
William Shakespeare
Two stars keep not their motion in one sphere.
William Shakespeare
Beshrew that heart that makes my heart to groan For that deep wound it gives my friend and me Is't not enough to torture me alone, But slave to slavery my sweet'st friend must be?
William Shakespeare
Speak what we feel, not what we ought to say.
William Shakespeare
The hand that hath made you fair hath made you good. Pity is the virtue of the law, and none but tyrants use it cruelly.
William Shakespeare
Flesh and blood, You, brother mine, that entertain'd ambition, Expell'd remorse and nature, who, with Sebastian- Whose inward pinches therefore are most strong- Would here have kill'd your king, I do forgive thee, Unnatural though thou art.
William Shakespeare
I hate the murderer, love him murdered.
William Shakespeare
What we determine we often break. Purpose is but the slave to memory.
William Shakespeare
O polished perturbation! golden care! That keep'st the ports of slumber open wide To many a watchful night.
William Shakespeare
I have thought some of Nature's journeymen had made men and not made them well, they imitated humanity so abominably.
William Shakespeare
The attempt and not the deed confounds us.
William Shakespeare
Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?
William Shakespeare
What wouldst thou do, old man? Think'st thou that duty shall have dread to speak When power to flattery bows?
William Shakespeare
What showers arise, blown with the windy tempest of my heart
William Shakespeare
A fool, a fool! I met a fool i' th' forest, A motley fool! a miserable world! As I do live by food, I met a fool Who laid him down and basked him in the sun And railed on Lady Fortune in good terms, In good set terms, and yet a motley fool.
William Shakespeare
Every man has business and desire, Such as it is.
William Shakespeare
I may neither choose who I would, nor refuse who I dislike so is the will of a living daughter curbed by the will of a dead father.
William Shakespeare
Nature hath framed strange fellows in her time.
William Shakespeare
