No matter where of comfort no man speak: Let's talk of graves, of worms, and epitaphs Make dust our paper and with rainy eyes Write sorrow on the bosom of the earth

More quotes by William Shakespeare
Press not a falling man too far 'tis virtue: His faults lie open to the laws let them, Not you, correct him.
William Shakespeare
This rough magic I here abjure and when I have required some heavenly music, which even now I do, to work mine end upon their senses that this airy charm is for, I'll break my staff, bury it certain fathoms in the earth, and deeper than did ever plummet sound, I'll drown my book.
William Shakespeare
One woman is fair, yet I am well another is wise, yet I am well another virtuous, yet I am well but till all graces be in one woman, one woman shall not come in my grace.
William Shakespeare
Let still woman take An elder than herself: so wears she to him, So sways she level in her husband's heart, For, boy, however we do praise ourselves, Our fancies are more giddy and unfirm, More longing, wavering, sooner to be lost and warn, Than women's are.
William Shakespeare
I'll go find a shadow, and sigh till he come (Phebe)
William Shakespeare
The tyrant custom, most grave senators, Hath made the flinty and steel couch of war My thrice-driven bed of down.
William Shakespeare
Civil dissension is a viperous worm That gnaws the bowels of the commonwealth.
William Shakespeare
Now let it work. Mischief, thou art afoot. Take thou what course thou wilt.
William Shakespeare
Things base and vile, holding no quantity, Love can transpose to form and dignity. Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind. Nor hath Love's mind of any judgment taste Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste.
William Shakespeare
He took the bride about the neck and kissed her lips with such a clamorous smack that at the parting all the church did echo.
William Shakespeare
Should the poor be flattered? No let the candied tongue lick absurd pomp, and crook the pregnant hinges of the knee where thrift may follow fawning.
William Shakespeare
The will of man is by his reason sway'd.
William Shakespeare
My brain more busy than the labouring spider Weaves tedious snares to trap mine enemies.
William Shakespeare
Sweetest nut hath sourest rind.
William Shakespeare
Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice.
William Shakespeare
Fools are as like husbands as pilchards are to herrings, the husband's the bigger.
William Shakespeare
Old Time the clock-setter.
William Shakespeare
I'll read enough When I do see the very book indeed Where all my sins are writ, and that's myself.
William Shakespeare
Be not thy tongue thy own shame's orator.
William Shakespeare
More can I bear than you dare execute.
William Shakespeare
