More quotes by William Shakespeare
But men are men the best sometimes forget.
William Shakespeare
O! that a man might know The end of this day's business, ere it come But it sufficeth that the day will end, And then the end is known.
William Shakespeare
I will be treble-sinewed, hearted, breathed, And fight maliciously for when mine hours Were nice and lucky, men did ransom lives Of me for jests but now I'll set my teeth And send to darkness all that stop me.
William Shakespeare
Marriage is a matter of more worth Than to be dealt in by attorneyship.
William Shakespeare
O you beast! I'll so maul you and your toasting-iron, That you shall think the devil is come from hell.
William Shakespeare
Use almost can change the stamp of nature.
William Shakespeare
Villains, vipers, damn'd without redemption Dogs, easily won to fawn on any man Snakes in my heart-blood warm'd, that sing my heart Three Judases, each one thrice worse than Judas.
William Shakespeare
He does it with better grace, but I do it more natural.
William Shakespeare
My crown is in my heart, not on my head not decked with diamonds and Indian stones, nor to be seen: my crown is called content, a crown it is that seldom kings enjoy.
William Shakespeare
Here I and sorrows sit Here is my throne, bid kings come bow to it.
William Shakespeare
The devil is a gentleman.
William Shakespeare
By the apostle Paul, shadows tonight Have struck more terror to the soul of Richard Than can the substance of ten thousand soldiers.
William Shakespeare
Time goes on crutches till love have all his rites.
William Shakespeare
Where the greater malady is fixed, The lesser is scarce felt.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Society is no comfort, to one not sociable.
William Shakespeare
Let none presume To wear an undeserved dignity.
William Shakespeare
For I am fresh of spirit, and resolved To meet all perils very constantly.
William Shakespeare
The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose. An evil soul producing holy witness Is like a villain with a smiling cheek, A goodly apple rotten at the heart. O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!
William Shakespeare
The language I have learnt these forty years, My native English, now I must forgo And now my tongue's use is to me no more Than an unstringed viol or a harp, Or like a cunning instrument cased up Or, being open, put into his hands That knows no touch to tune the harmony.
William Shakespeare
