More quotes by William Shakespeare
Blind fear, that seeing reason leads, finds safer footing than blind reason stumbling without fear: to fear the worst oft cures the worse.
William Shakespeare
Have you not a moist eye, a dry hand, a yellow cheek, a white beard, a decreasing leg, an increasing belly? Is not your voice broken, your wind short, your chin double, your wit single, and every part about you blasted with antiquity?
William Shakespeare
In such business Action is eloquence, and the eyes of th’ ignorant More learned than the ears.
William Shakespeare
Ne'er ask me what raiment I'll wear, for I have no more doublets than backs, no more stockings than legs, nor no more shoes than feet--nay, sometime more feet than shoes, or such shoes as my toes look through the overleather.
William Shakespeare
Tis but a base, ignoble mind That mounts no higher than a bird can soar.
William Shakespeare
If you prick us do we not bleed? If you tickle us do we not laugh? If you poison us do we not die? And if you wrong us shall we not revenge?
William Shakespeare
All things that are, are with more spirit chased than enjoyed.
William Shakespeare
Your worm is your only emperor for diet we fat all creatures else to fat us, and we fat ourselves for maggots.
William Shakespeare
Heaven is above all yet there sits a judge, That no king can corrupt.
William Shakespeare
I will speak daggers to her, but use none.
William Shakespeare
Who seeks, and will not take, when once 'tis offer'd, Shall never find it more.
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
Fie, thou dishonest Satan! I call thee by the most modest terms for I am one of those gentle ones that will use the devil himself with courtesy: sayest thou that house is dark?
William Shakespeare
Yet do I fear thy nature It is too full o' the milk of human kindness To catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great Art not without ambition, but without The illness should attend it: what thou wouldst highly, That wouldst thou holily wouldst not play false, And yet wouldst wrongly win.
William Shakespeare
So every bondman in his own hand bears The power to cancel his captivity.
William Shakespeare
A young man married is a man that's marred.
William Shakespeare
O, here Will I set up my everlasting rest, And shake the yoke of inauspicious stars From this world-wearied flesh. Eyes, look your last! Arms, take your last embrace! and, lips, O you The doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss A dateless bargain to engrossing death!
William Shakespeare
The undeserver may sleep when the man of action is called on.
William Shakespeare
And therefore is love said to be a child, Because in choice he is so oft beguil'd
William Shakespeare
Every fair from fair sometime declines
William Shakespeare
