More quotes by William Shakespeare
If men could be contented to be what they are, there were no fear in marriage.
William Shakespeare
Absence doth sharpen love, presence strengthens it the one brings fuel, the other blows it till it burns clear.
William Shakespeare
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all And thus the native hue of resolution Is slicked o'er with the pale cast of thought
William Shakespeare
I do I know not what, and fear to find Mine eye too great a flatterer for my mind. Fate, show thy force. Ourselves we do not owe. What is decreed must be and be this so.
William Shakespeare
Affection is a coal that must be cooled else, suffered, it will set the heart on fire.
William Shakespeare
He lives in fame that died in virtue's cause.
William Shakespeare
The poet's eye, in a fine frenzy rolling, doth glance from heaven to Earth, from Earth to heaven and as imagination bodies forth the forms of things unknown, the poet's pen turns them to shape, and gives to airy nothing a local habitation and a name such tricks hath strong imagination.
William Shakespeare
By God, I cannot flatter, I do defy The tongues of soothers! but a braver place In my heart's love hath no man than yourself. Nay, task me to my word approve me, lord.
William Shakespeare
Under loves heavy burden do I sink. --Romeo
William Shakespeare
There's rosemary, that's for remembrance. Pray you, love, remember.
William Shakespeare
Wait for the season when to cast good counsels upon subsiding passion.
William Shakespeare
Fear no more the heat o' th' sun Nor the furious winters' rages Thou thy worldly task hast done, Home art gone, and ta'en thy wages. Golden lads and girls all must, As chimney-sweepers, come to dust.
William Shakespeare
You great benefactors, sprinkle our society with thankfulness. For your own gifts, make yourselves praised.
William Shakespeare
Pause awhile, And let my counsel sway you.
William Shakespeare
...Vaulted with such ease into his seat, As if an angel dropp'd down from the clouds, To turn and wind a fiery Pegasus, And witch the world with noble horsemanship.
William Shakespeare
Lord, Lord, how this world is given to lying!
William Shakespeare
I may command where I adore.
William Shakespeare
Two starving men cannot be twice as hungry as one but two rascals can be ten times as vicious as one.
William Shakespeare
This man, lady, hath robb'd many beasts of their particular additions: he is as valiant as a lion, churlish as the bear, slow as the elephant-a man into whom nature hath so crowded humours that his valour is crush'd into folly, his folly sauced with discretion.
William Shakespeare
Let me be boiled to death with melancholy.
William Shakespeare
