More quotes by William Shakespeare
Love is merely a madness and, I tell you, deserves as well a dark house and a whip as madmen do and the reason why they are not so punish'd and cured is that the lunacy is so ordinary that the whippers are in love too.
William Shakespeare
To do a great right do a little wrong.
William Shakespeare
I will not be sworn but love may transform me to an oyster
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
But when the fox hath once got in his nose, He'll soon find means to make the body follow.
William Shakespeare
The gods are just, and of our pleasant vices Make instruments to plague us.
William Shakespeare
Let fame, that all hunt after in their lives, Live regist'red upon our brazen tombs And then grace us in the disgrace of death When, spite of cormorant devouring Time, Th' endeavor of this present breath may buy That honor which shall bate his scythe's keen edge And make us heirs of all eternity.
William Shakespeare
My desolation does begin to make A better life.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Every man has a bag hanging before him, in which he puts his neighbour's faults, and another behind him in which he stows his own.
William Shakespeare
Conscience doth make cowards of us all.
William Shakespeare
He hath a heart as sound as a bell, and his tongue is the clapper for what his heart thinks his tongue speaks.
William Shakespeare
In struggling with misfortunes lies the true proof of virtue.
William Shakespeare
O thou invisible spirit of wine, if thou has no name to be known by, let us call thee devil....O God, that men should put an enemy in their mouths to steal away their brains! that we should, with joy, pleasance revel and applause, transform ourselves into beasts!
William Shakespeare
A dream itself is but a shadow.
William Shakespeare
Look how the world's poor people are amazed at apparitions, signs and prodigies!
William Shakespeare
Tis in ourselves that we are thus, or thus.
William Shakespeare
And oft, my jealousy shapes faults that are not.
William Shakespeare
Good Lord, for alliance! Thus goes every one to the world but I, and I am sunburnt I may sit in a corner and cry heigh-ho for a husband!
William Shakespeare
He's truly valiant that can wisely suffer The worst that man can breathe, and make his wrongs His outsides, to wear them like his raiment, carelessly, And ne'er prefer his injuries to his heart, To bring it into danger.
William Shakespeare
