More quotes by William Shakespeare
I find my zenith doth depend upon A most auspicious star, whose influence If now I court not, but omit, my fortunes Will ever after droop.
William Shakespeare
Now he'll outstare the lightning. To be furious Is to be frightened out of fear.
William Shakespeare
What, shall one of us, That struck for the foremost man of all this world But for supporting robbers--shall we now Contaminate our fingers with base bribes, And sell the mighty space of our large honors For so much trash as may be grasped thus?
William Shakespeare
Ideas are the very coinage of your brain.
William Shakespeare
A college of wit-crackers cannot flout me out of my humor. Dost thou think I care for a satire or an epigram?
William Shakespeare
Cry havoc! and let loose the dogs of war, That this foul deed shall smell above the earth With carrion men, groaning for burial.
William Shakespeare
The Play's the Thing, wherein I'll catch the conscience of the King.
William Shakespeare
Rebellion in this land shall lose his sway, meeting the check of such another day.
William Shakespeare
When love begins to sicken and decay it uses an enforced ceremony.
William Shakespeare
By Jove, I am not covetous for gold, Nor care I who doth feed upon my cost It yearns me not if me my garments wear Such outward things dwell not in my desires: But if it be a sin to covet honor, I am the most offending soul alive.
William Shakespeare
We that are true lovers run into strange capers.
William Shakespeare
Besides, our nearness to the King in love Is near the hate of those love not the King.
William Shakespeare
A sympathy in choice.
William Shakespeare
Wilt thou whip thine own faults in other men?
William Shakespeare
It is not night when I do see your face, Therefore I think I am not in the night Nor doth this wood lack worlds of company, For you in my respect are all the world: Then how can it be said I am alone, When all the world is here to look on me?
William Shakespeare
Taste your legs, sire: put them into motion.
William Shakespeare
When lenity and cruelty play for a kingdom, the gentler gamester is the soonest winner
William Shakespeare
Thrice is he arm'd that hath his quarrel just, And he but naked, though lock'd up in steel, Whose conscience with injustice is corrupted.
William Shakespeare
To move wild laughter in the throat of death? It cannot be it is impossible: Mirth cannot move a soul in agony.
William Shakespeare
'Tis better to be vile than vile esteemed, When not to be, receives reproach of being, And the just pleasure lost, which is so deemed, Not by our feeling, but by others' seeing.
