Image
And it is very much lamented,... That you have no such mirrors as will turn Your hidden worthiness into your eye That you might see your shadow.
William Shakespeare
Image
The devil knew what he did when he made men politic he crossed himself by it.
William Shakespeare
Image
There's little of the melancholy element in her, my lord: she is never sad but when she sleeps and not ever sad then for I have heard my daughter say, she hath often dreamt of unhappiness, and waked herself with laughing.
William Shakespeare
Image
Swear me, Kate, like a lady as thou art, A good mouth-filling oath.
William Shakespeare
Image
It easeth some, though none it ever cured, to think their dolour others have endured.
William Shakespeare
Image
If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men’s cottages princes’ palaces. It is a good divine that follows his own instructions: I can easier teach twenty what were good to be done, than be one of the twenty to follow mine own teaching.
William Shakespeare
Image
The means that heaven yields must be embraced, and not neglected else, if heaven would, and we will not heaven's offer, we refuse the proffered means of succor and redress.
William Shakespeare
Image
If I could write the beauty of your eyes And in fresh numbers number all your graces, The age to come would say, 'This poet lies Such heavenly touches ne'er touch'd earthly faces.'
William Shakespeare
Image
For I am proverbed with a grandsire phrase.
William Shakespeare
Image
Good morrow, fair ones pray you, if you know, Where in the purlieus of this forest stands A sheep-cote fenc'd about with olive trees?
William Shakespeare
Image
Bait the hook well. This fish will bite.
William Shakespeare
Image
They were devils incarnate.
William Shakespeare
Image
All that glisters is not gold Often have you heard that told.
William Shakespeare
Image
Like as the waves make towards the pebbl'd shore, so do our minutes, hasten to their end.
William Shakespeare
Image
the fire seven times tried this seven times tried that judgement is that did never choose amiss some there be that shadows kiss such have but a shadows bliss, there be fool alive, i wis silverd o'er, and so was this Take what wife you will to bed I will ever be your head. So be gone you are sped.
William Shakespeare
Image
For to define true madness, What is't but to be nothing else but mad?
William Shakespeare
Image
Care is no cure, but rather corrosive, For things that are not to be remedied.
William Shakespeare
Image
The gods are deaf to hot and peevish vows. They are polluted off'rings, more abhorred! Than spotted livers in the sacrifice.
William Shakespeare
Image
Crack'd in pieces by malignant Death.
William Shakespeare
Image
Is love a tender thing? It is too rough, too rude, too boisterous, and it pricks like thorn.
