More quotes by William Shakespeare
And oft, my jealousy shapes faults that are not.
William Shakespeare
I sat upon a promontory, And heard a mermaid, on a dolphin's back, Uttering such dulcet and harmonious breath, That the rude sea grew civil at her song And certain stars shot madly from their spheres, To hear the sea-maid's music.
William Shakespeare
Let's take the instant by the forward top For we are old, and on our quick'st decrees The inaudible and noiseless foot of Time Steals ere we can effect them.
William Shakespeare
I hold the world but as the world, Gratiano!
William Shakespeare
Hath Romeo slain himself? Say thou but ay, And that bare vowel ay shall poison more Than the death-darting eye of cockatrice. I am not I,if there be such an ay, Or those eyes shut,that make thee answer ay: If he be slain say ay,or if not,no: Brief sounds,determine of my weal or woe.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Some sins do bear their privilege on earth, And so doth yours: your fault was not your folly Needs must you lay your heart at his dispose, Subjected tribute to commanding love, Against whose fury and unmatched force The aweless lion could not wage the fight Nor keep his princely heart from Richard's hand.
William Shakespeare
What is thy sentence then but speechless death.
William Shakespeare
A woman impudent and mannish grown Is not more loath'd than an effeminate man.
William Shakespeare
Pause awhile, And let my counsel sway you.
William Shakespeare
Headstrong liberty is lashed with woe.
William Shakespeare
But to my mind, though I am native here, And to the manner born, it is a custom, More honored in the breach than the observance.
William Shakespeare
Now 'tis spring, and weeds are shallow-rooted Suffer them now and they'll o'ergrow the garden.
William Shakespeare
I love a ballad in print o' life, for then we are sure they are true.
William Shakespeare
Every man has a bag hanging before him, in which he puts his neighbour's faults, and another behind him in which he stows his own.
William Shakespeare
To weep is to make less the depth of grief.
William Shakespeare
Love yourself and in that love not unconsidered leave your honor.
William Shakespeare
Weep I cannot But my heart bleeds.
William Shakespeare
It is the very error of the moon She comes more nearer earth than she was wont, And makes men mad.
William Shakespeare
But I will wear my heart upon my sleeve For daws to peck at: I am not what I am.
William Shakespeare
