More quotes by William Shakespeare
I thank God I am as honest as any man living that is an old man and no honester than I.
William Shakespeare
Rich honesty dwells like a miser, Sir, in a poor house as your pearl in your foul oyster.
William Shakespeare
I charge thee, hence, and do not haunt me thus.
William Shakespeare
To die, to sleep - To sleep, perchance to dream - ay, there's the rub, For in this sleep of death what dreams may come.
William Shakespeare
The why is plain as way to parish church: He that a fool doth very wisely hit Doth very foolishly, although he smart, Not to seem senseless of the bob if not, The wise man's folly is anatomiz'd Even by the squand'ring glances of the fool.
William Shakespeare
Is it possible he should know what he is, and be that he is?
William Shakespeare
Woe to that land that's governed by a child.
William Shakespeare
Care I for the limb, the thews, the stature, bulk, and big assemblance of a man! Give me the spirit.
William Shakespeare
It provokes the desire but it takes away the performance. Therefore much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him and it mars him it sets him on and it takes him off.
William Shakespeare
The rose looks fair, but fairer we it deem For that sweet odour which doth in it live.
William Shakespeare
Neither my place, nor aught I heard of business, Hath raised me from my bed nor doth the general care Take hold on me for my particular grief Is of so floodgate and o'erbearing nature That it engluts and swallows other sorrows, And it is still itself.
William Shakespeare
A pox o’ your throat, you bawling, blasphemous, incharitable dog!
William Shakespeare
Now, my masters, happy man be his dole, say I every man to his business.
William Shakespeare
Instead of weeping when a tragedy occurs in a songbird's life, it sings away its grief. I believe we could well follow the pattern of our feathered friends.
William Shakespeare
And thus I clothe my naked villainy With odd old ends stol'n out of holy writ And seem a saint, when most I play the devil.
William Shakespeare
Some innocents 'scape not the thunderbolt.
William Shakespeare
The tongues of dying men enforce attention like deep harmony.
William Shakespeare
Put on The dauntless spirit of resolution.
William Shakespeare
Prosperity's the very bond of love, Whose fresh complexion and whose heart together Affliction alters.
William Shakespeare
I have no way and therefore want no eyes I stumbled when I saw. Full oft 'tis seen our means secure us, and our mere defects prove our commodities.
William Shakespeare
