More quotes by William Shakespeare
Ever note, Lucilius, When love begins to sicken and decay It useth an enforced ceremony. There are no tricks in plain and simple faith But hollow men, like horses hot at hand, Make gallant show and promise of their mettle But when they should endure the bloody spur, They fall their crests, and like deceitful jades Sink in the trial.
William Shakespeare
The force of his own merit makes his way-a gift that heaven gives for him.
William Shakespeare
I do know when the blood burns, how prodigal the soul lends the tongue vows.
William Shakespeare
Promising is the very air o' the time it opens the eyes of expectation.
William Shakespeare
Gratiano speaks an infinite deal of nothing, more than any man in all Venice. His reasons are as two grains of wheat hid in two bushels of chaff: you shall seek all day ere you find them, and when you have them, they are not worth the search.
William Shakespeare
They are sick that surfeit with too much, as they that starve with nothing.
William Shakespeare
Fortune reigns in gifts of the world.
William Shakespeare
O faithless coward! O dishonest wretch! Wilt thou be made a man out of my vice?
William Shakespeare
The horn, the horn, the lusty horn Is not a thing to laugh to scorn.
William Shakespeare
I'll look to like if looking, liking move.
William Shakespeare
O King, believe not this hard-hearted man!
William Shakespeare
A glooming peace this morning with it brings The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head: Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished: For never was a story of more woe Than this of Juliet and her Romeo.
William Shakespeare
Nay, I am the very pink of courtesy.
William Shakespeare
I am as true as truth's simplicity, And simpler than the infancy of truth.
William Shakespeare
Better be with the dead, Whom we to gain our peace, have sent to peace, Than on the torture of the mind to lie In restless ecstasy.
William Shakespeare
These earthly godfathers of Heaven's lights, that give a name to every fixed star, have no more profit of their shining nights than those that walk and know not what they are.
William Shakespeare
Drink, sir, is a great provoker of three things . . . nose-painting, sleep, and urine. Lechery, sir, it provokes, and unprovokes it provokes the desire, but it takes away the performance.
William Shakespeare
How use doth breed a habit in a man.
William Shakespeare
DEMETRIUS Relent, sweet Hermia: and, Lysander, yield Thy crazed title to my certain right. LYSANDER You have her father's love, Demetrius Let me have Hermia's: do you marry him.
William Shakespeare
My love is as a fever, longing still For that which longer nurseth the disease, Feeding on that which doth preserve the ill, Th' uncertain sickly appetite to please. My reason, the physician to my love, Angry that his prescriptions are not kept, Hath left me, and I desperate now approve Desire is death, which physic did except.
William Shakespeare
