More quotes by William Shakespeare
Love is a smoke rais'd with the fume of sighs being purg'd, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes being vex'd, a sea nourish'd with lovers' tears what is it else? A madness most discreet, a choking gall, and a preserving sweet.
William Shakespeare
So shalt thou feed on Death, that feeds on men.
William Shakespeare
His steeds to water at those springs On chaliced flowers that lies And winking Mary-buds begin To ope their golden eyes: With every thing that pretty is, My lady sweet, arise.
William Shakespeare
Blind fear, that seeing reason leads, finds safer footing than blind reason stumbling without fear: to fear the worst oft cures the worse.
William Shakespeare
The present eye praises the present object.
William Shakespeare
My love is deep the more I give to thee, the more I have, both are infinite.
William Shakespeare
The breach of custom Is breach of all.
William Shakespeare
The sudden hand of Death close up mine eye!
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Mine honour is my life both grow in one Take honour from me, and my life is done.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
When he shall die, Take him and cut him out in little stars, And he will make the face of heaven so fine That all the world will be in love with night And pay no worship to the garish sun.
William Shakespeare
Our thoughts are ours, their ends none of our own
William Shakespeare
The poet's eye, in a fine frenzy rolling, Doth glance from heaven to earth, From earth to heaven.
William Shakespeare
I'll make my heaven in a lady's lap
William Shakespeare
Thank me no thankings, nor proud me no prouds.
William Shakespeare
I will not choose what many men desire, Because I will not jump with common spirits And rank me with the barbarous multitudes.
William Shakespeare
The most peerless piece of earth, I think, that e' er the sun shone bright on.
William Shakespeare
Before thee stands this fair Hesperides, With golden fruit, but dangerous to be touched For death-like dragons here affright thee hard.
William Shakespeare
