More quotes by William Shakespeare
Not all the water in the rough rude sea Can wash the balm from an anointed King.
William Shakespeare
Neither a borrower nor a lender be, for loan oft loses both itself and friend, and borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
William Shakespeare
Is this a dagger which I see before me, The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee. I have thee not, and yet I see thee still. Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible To feeling as to sight? or art thou but A dagger of the mind, a false creation, Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?
William Shakespeare
Now the good gods forbid That our renowned Rome, whose gratitude Towards her deserved children is enrolled In Jove's own book, like an unnatural dam Should now eat up her own!
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
As flies to wanton boys, are we to the gods they kill us for their sport.
William Shakespeare
Small to greater matters must give way.
William Shakespeare
The end crowns all, And that old common arbitrator, Time, Will one day end it.
William Shakespeare
When I waked, I cried to dream again
William Shakespeare
Muster your wits stand in your own defence.
William Shakespeare
One whom the music of his own vain tongue doth ravish like enchanting harmony.
William Shakespeare
Have I thought long to see this morning’s face, And doth it give me such a sight as this?
William Shakespeare
Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.
William Shakespeare
O good old man, how well in thee appears The constant service of the antique world, When service sweat for duty, not for meed! Thou art not for the fashion of these times, Where none will sweat but for promotion, And having that do choke their service up Even with the having. . . .
William Shakespeare
I'll follow thee and make a heaven of hell, To die upon the hand I love so well
William Shakespeare
Evermore thanks, the exchequer of the poor
William Shakespeare
Where is your ancient courage? You were used to say extremities was the trier of spirits That common chances common men could bear That when the sea was calm all boats alike showed mastership in floating.
William Shakespeare
The hand that hath made you fair hath made you good.
William Shakespeare
Against self-slaughter There is a prohibition so divine That cravens my weak hand.
William Shakespeare
