More quotes by William Shakespeare
Literature is a comprehensive essence of the intellectual life of a nation.
William Shakespeare
Love for thy love , and hand for hand I give.
William Shakespeare
But flies an eagle flight, bold and forth on, Leaving no tract behind.
William Shakespeare
Thou seest I have more flesh than another man, and therefore more frailty.
William Shakespeare
And thus I clothe my naked villainy With odd old ends stol'n out of holy writ And seem a saint, when most I play the devil.
William Shakespeare
For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds Lillies that fester smell far worse than weeds.
William Shakespeare
We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
William Shakespeare
Thou seest we are not all alone unhappy: This wide and universal theatre Presents more woeful pageants than the scene Wherein we play in.
William Shakespeare
For the poor wren (The most diminutive of birds) will fight, Her young ones in her nest, against the owl.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
I would we were all of one mind, and one mind good.
William Shakespeare
My chastity's the jewel of our house, bequeathed down from many ancestors.
William Shakespeare
O, then I see Queen Mab hath been with you. . . . She is the fairies’ midwife, and she comes In shape no bigger than an agate stone On the forefinger of an alderman, Drawn with a team of little atomi Athwart men’s noses as they lie asleep.
William Shakespeare
As I love the name of honour more than I fear death.
William Shakespeare
The commonwealth of Athens is become a forest of beasts.
William Shakespeare
The will is deaf and hears no heedful friends.
William Shakespeare
Her father lov'd me oft invited me Still question'd me the story of my life, From year to year, the battles, sieges, fortunes, That I have pass'd.
William Shakespeare
Thieves for their robbery have authority When judges steal themselves.
William Shakespeare
The seeming truth which cunning times put on to entrap the wisest.
William Shakespeare
My father compounded with my mother under the Dragon's tail, and my nativity was under Ursa Major, so that it follows, I am roughand lecherous. Tut, I should have been that I am, had the maidenliest star in the firmament twinkled on my bastardizing.
William Shakespeare
