More quotes by William Shakespeare
Give me a bowl of wine. I have not that alacrity of spirit Nor cheer of mind that I was wont to have.
William Shakespeare
I have sounded the very base-string of humility.
William Shakespeare
And keep you in the rear of your affection, Out of the shot and danger of desire, The chariest maid is prodigal enough If she unmasks her beauty to the moon.
William Shakespeare
This day's black fate on more days doth depend This but begins the woe, others must end.
William Shakespeare
They that have voice of lions and act of hares,--are they not monsters?
William Shakespeare
And be these juggling friends no more believ'd, That palter with us in a double sense That keep the word of promise to our ear And break it to our hope.
William Shakespeare
Why, universal plodding poisons up The nimble spirits in the arteries, As motion and long-during action tires The sinewy vigor of the traveller.
William Shakespeare
Maids want nothing but husbands, and when they have them, they want everything.
William Shakespeare
Give me a staff of honor for mine age, But not a sceptre to control the world.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
The Eyes are the window to your soul
William Shakespeare
Most dear actors, eat no onions nor garlic, for we are to utter sweet breath.
William Shakespeare
Against love's fire fear`s frost hath dissolution
William Shakespeare
Bad is the trade that must play fool to sorrow, Ang'ring itself and others.
William Shakespeare
Men's vows are women's traitors
William Shakespeare
Instead of weeping when a tragedy occurs in a songbird's life, it sings away its grief. I believe we could well follow the pattern of our feathered friends.
William Shakespeare
Can we outrun the heavens?
William Shakespeare
And do so, love, yet when they have devised What strainèd touches rhetoric can lend, Thou, truly fair, wert truly sympathized In true plain words by thy true-telling friend And their gross painting might be better used Where cheeks need blood in thee it is abused.
William Shakespeare
Be not too tame neither, but let your own Discretion be your tutor suit the action to the word, the word to the action.
William Shakespeare
And when I am forgotten, as I shall be, And asleep in dull cold marble, where no mention Of me must be heard of, say, I taught thee.
William Shakespeare
