More quotes by William Shakespeare
Two households, both alike in dignity In fair Verona, where we lay our scene From ancient grudge break to new mutiny Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life Whose misadventured piteous overthrows Do with their death bury their parents' strife.
William Shakespeare
Such antics do not amount to a man.
William Shakespeare
Death-counterfeiting sleep.
William Shakespeare
Look like the innocent flower, But be the serpent under it.
William Shakespeare
Do thou amend thy face, and I'll amend my life.
William Shakespeare
Too much of water hast thou, poor Ophelia, And therefore I forbid my tears.
William Shakespeare
A friend should bear his friend's infirmities.
William Shakespeare
I do oppose My patience to his fury, and am arm'd To suffer, with a quietness of spirit, The very tyranny and rage of his.
William Shakespeare
Chewing the food of sweet and bitter fancy.
William Shakespeare
They were devils incarnate.
William Shakespeare
Thou art thy mother's glass, and she in thee Calls back the lovely April of her prime...
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
But when I came, alas, to wive, With hey, ho, the wind and the rain, By swaggering could I never thrive, For the rain it raineth every day.
William Shakespeare
To die, to sleep - To sleep, perchance to dream - ay, there's the rub, For in this sleep of death what dreams may come.
William Shakespeare
One sees more devils than vast hell can hold
William Shakespeare
But no perfection is so absolute, That some impurity doth not pollute.
William Shakespeare
But 'tis common proof, that lowliness is young ambition's ladder, whereto the climber-upward turns his face but when he once attains the upmost round, he then turns his back, looks in the clouds, scorning the vase defrees by which he did ascend.
William Shakespeare
Ah me, how weak a thing The heart of woman is!
William Shakespeare
My crown is in my heart, not on my head.
William Shakespeare
Wisdom and fortune combating together, If that the former dare but what it can, No chance may shake it.
William Shakespeare
