More quotes by William Shakespeare
But thou, contracted to thine own bright eyes, Feed'st thy light's flame with self-substantial fuel, Making a famine where abundance lies, Thyself thy foe, to thy sweet self too cruel.
William Shakespeare
I have thrust myself into this maze, Haply to wive and thrive as best I may.
William Shakespeare
Gold--what can it not do, and undo?
William Shakespeare
Golden lads and girls all must as chimney sweepers come to dust.
William Shakespeare
Tis time to fear when tyrants seem to kiss.
William Shakespeare
He hath eaten me out of house and home.
William Shakespeare
When that churl Death my bones with dust shall cover.
William Shakespeare
Most friendship is faining, most loving mere folly: Then, heigh-ho, the holly. This life is most jolly.
William Shakespeare
Though yet of Hamlet our dear brother's death the memory be green.
William Shakespeare
Men should be what they seem Or those that be not, would they might seem none!.
William Shakespeare
When a man's verses cannot be understood, nor a man's good wit seconded with the forward child understanding, it strikes a man more dead than a great reckoning in a little room. Truly, I would the gods had made thee poetical.
William Shakespeare
Desire of having is the sin of covetousness.
William Shakespeare
You had measured how long a fool you were upon the ground.
William Shakespeare
Beshrew that heart that makes my heart to groan For that deep wound it gives my friend and me Is't not enough to torture me alone, But slave to slavery my sweet'st friend must be?
William Shakespeare
Wisdom and fortune combating together, If that the former dare but what it can, No chance may shake it.
William Shakespeare
A plague of sighing and grief! It blows a man up like a bladder.
William Shakespeare
As I hope For quiet days, fair issue, and long life, With such love as 'tis now, the murkiest den, The most opportune place, the strong'st suggestion Our worser genius can, shall never melt Mine honour into lust, to take away The edge of that day's celebration, When I shall think or Phoebus' steeds are founder'd Or Night kept chain'd below.
William Shakespeare
Roses have thorns, and silver fountains mud Clouds and eclipses stain both moon and sun, And loathsome canker lies in sweetest bud. All men make faults.
William Shakespeare
As chaste as unsunned snow.
William Shakespeare
A true repentance shuns the evil itself, more than the external suffering or the shame.
William Shakespeare
