More quotes by William Shakespeare
The golden age is before us, not behind us.
William Shakespeare
Falsehood falsehood cures
William Shakespeare
My liege, and madam, to expostulate What majesty should be, what duty is, Why day is day, night night, and time is time, Were nothing but to waste night, day and time. Therefore, since brevity is the soul of wit, And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes, I will be brief.
William Shakespeare
Hide not thy poison with such sugar'd words
William Shakespeare
Honesty is not the best policy - merely the safest
William Shakespeare
A fool's bolt is soon shot.
William Shakespeare
I have heard of some kind of men that put quarrels purposely on others, to taste their valor.
William Shakespeare
Before thee stands this fair Hesperides, With golden fruit, but dangerous to be touched For death-like dragons here affright thee hard.
William Shakespeare
Haply a woman's voice may do some good When articles too nicely urged be stood on.
William Shakespeare
Thriftless ambition, that wilt ravin up Thine own life's means!
William Shakespeare
A beggar's book outworths a noble's blood.
William Shakespeare
Thou slave, thou wretch, thou coward! Thou little valiant, great in villainy! Thou ever strong upon the stronger side! Thou Fortune's champion, that dost never fight But where her humorous ladyship is by To teach thee safety.
William Shakespeare
But earthlier happy is the rose distill'd Than that which withering on the virgin thorn Grows, lives, and dies in single blessedness.
William Shakespeare
Into what dangers would you lead me, Cassius, That you would have me seek into myself For that which is not in me?
William Shakespeare
Because I cannot flatter and look fair, Smile in men's faces, smooth, deceive, and cog, Duck with French nods and apish courtesy, I must be held a rancorous enemy.
William Shakespeare
You are a lover. Borrow Cupid's wings and soar with them above a common bound.
William Shakespeare
We will have rings and things and fine array
William Shakespeare
I would not wish any companion in the world but you.
William Shakespeare
ROMEO to BALTHASAR But if thou, jealous, dost return to pry In what I further shall intend to do, By heaven, I will tear thee joint by joint And strew this hungry churchyard with thy limbs: The time and my intents are savage-wild, More fierce and more inexorable far Than empty tigers or the roaring sea.
William Shakespeare
Like a man made after supper of a cheese-paring: when a' was naked, he was, for all the world, like a forked radish, with a head fantastically carved upon it with a knife.
