More quotes by William Shakespeare
Wilt thou whip thine own faults in other men?
William Shakespeare
All furnished, all in arms All plum'd like estridges that with the wind Bated like eagles having lately bathed Glittering in golden coats like images As full of spirit as the month of May And gorgeous as the sun at midsummer Wanton as youthful goats, wild as young bulls.
William Shakespeare
The sands are number'd that make up my life Here must I stay, and here my life must end.
William Shakespeare
So are you to my thoughts as food to life, or as sweet seasoned showers are to the ground.
William Shakespeare
What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a god.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Thou dost conspire against thy friend, Iago, If thou but think'st him wronged, and mak'st his ear A stranger to thy thoughts.
William Shakespeare
We waste our lights in vain, like lamps by day.
William Shakespeare
What should such fellows as I do crawling between earth and heaven?
William Shakespeare
Flesh and blood, You, brother mine, that entertain'd ambition, Expell'd remorse and nature, who, with Sebastian- Whose inward pinches therefore are most strong- Would here have kill'd your king, I do forgive thee, Unnatural though thou art.
William Shakespeare
Learning is but an adjunct to ourself, And where we are our learning likewise is.
William Shakespeare
Give every man thine ear, but few thy voice Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgment.
William Shakespeare
I always thought it was both impious and unnatural that such immanity and bloody strife should reign among professors of one faith.
William Shakespeare
Here is a rural fellow that will not be denied your Highness' presence: he brings you figs.
William Shakespeare
The proverb is something musty.
William Shakespeare
