More quotes by William Shakespeare
By a divine instinct, men's minds mistrust ensuing danger as, by proof, we see the waters swell before a boisterous storm.
William Shakespeare
Thou shouldst not have been old till thou hadst been wise.
William Shakespeare
Our rash faults Make trivial price of serious thing we have, Not knowing them until we know their grave.
William Shakespeare
My free drift Halts not particularly, but moves itself In a wide sea of wax no levelled malice Infects one comma in the course I hold, But flies an eagle flight, bold and forth on, Leaving no tract behind.
William Shakespeare
And gentlemen in England now-a-bed Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here, And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day.
William Shakespeare
By medicine life may be prolonged, yet death will seize the doctor too.
William Shakespeare
How can tyrants safely govern home, Unless abroad they purchase great alliance.
William Shakespeare
Antonio: Will you stay no longer? nor will you not that I go with you? Sebastian: By your patience, no. My stars shine darkly over me the malignancy of my fate might, perhaps, distemper yours therefore I shall crave of you your leave that I may bear my evils alone. It were a bad recompense for your love to lay any of them on you.
William Shakespeare
He who has injured thee was either stronger or weaker than thee. If weaker, spare him if stronger, spare thyself.
William Shakespeare
Which can say more than this rich praise, that you alone are you?
William Shakespeare
Nothing is so common as the wish to be remarkable.(attributed to)
William Shakespeare
. . . nothing in his life Became him like the leaving it he died As one that had been studied in his death To throw away the dearest thing he owed, As 'twere a careless trifle.
William Shakespeare
Past all shame, so past all truth.
William Shakespeare
The hind that would be mated by the lion Must die for love.
William Shakespeare
Were it good To set the exact wealth of all our states All at one cast? to set so rich a main On the nice hazard of one doubtful hour? It were not good.
William Shakespeare
Yet writers say, as in the sweetest bud The eating canter dwells, so eating love Inhabits in the finest wits of all.
William Shakespeare
I do know of these That therefore only are reputed wise For saying nothing.
William Shakespeare
There's many a man hath more hair than wit.
William Shakespeare
I have pursued her, as love hath pursued me
William Shakespeare
It provokes the desire but it takes away the performance. Therefore much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him and it mars him it sets him on and it takes him off.
William Shakespeare
