More quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
A king of infinite space
William Shakespeare
To be furious, is to be frighted out of fear.
William Shakespeare
O, it is excellent To have a giant's strength but it is tyrannous To use it like a giant.

Is there no pity sitting in the clouds, That sees into the bottom of my grief?

Kindness nobler ever than revenge.

What Time hath scanted men in hair, he hath given them in wit.
