More quotes by William Shakespeare
Art made tongue-tied by authority.
William Shakespeare
If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men's cottage princes' palaces.
William Shakespeare
O wretched state! O bosom black as death! O limed soul that, struggling to be free, art more engaged! Help, angels! Make assay! Bow, stubborn knees! and, heart with strings of steel, be soft as sinews of the new-born babe!
William Shakespeare
Why, courage then! what cannot be avoided 'Twere childish weakness to lament or fear.
William Shakespeare
We make ourselves fools to disport ourselves And spend our flatteries to drink those men Upon whose age we void it up again With poisonous spite and envy.
William Shakespeare
If we are true to ourselves, we can not be false to anyone.
William Shakespeare
War is no strife To the dark house and the detested wife.
William Shakespeare
The curse of marriage That we can call these delicate creatures ours And not their appetites!
William Shakespeare
Our enemies are our outward consciences.
William Shakespeare
A fool, a fool! I met a fool i' th' forest, A motley fool! a miserable world! As I do live by food, I met a fool Who laid him down and basked him in the sun And railed on Lady Fortune in good terms, In good set terms, and yet a motley fool.
William Shakespeare
That strain again! It had a dying fall: O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound That breathes upon a bank of violets, Stealing and giving odour! Enough no more: 'Tis not so sweet as it was before.
William Shakespeare
Your face, my thane, is as a book where men May read strange matters. To beguile the time, Look like the time bear welcome in your eye, Your hand, your tongue: look like the innocent flower, But be the serpent under't.
William Shakespeare
Is it not strange, that sheep's guts should hale souls out of men's bodies!
William Shakespeare
That island of England breeds very valiant creatures their mastiffs are of unmatchable courage.
William Shakespeare
Know more than other. Work more than other. Expect less than other
William Shakespeare
Shine out fair sun, till I have bought a glass, That I may see my shadow as I pass.
William Shakespeare
I am not only witty in myself, but the cause that wit is in other men.
William Shakespeare
All the contagion of the south light on you, You shames of Rome! you herd of--boils and plagues Plaster you o'er that you may be abhorr'd Further than seen, and one infect another Against the wind a mile!
William Shakespeare
Thyself shall see the act For, as thou urgest justice, be assured Thou shalt have justice, more than thou desir'st.
William Shakespeare
To have seen much and to have nothing is to have rich eyes and poor hands.
William Shakespeare
