More quotes by William Shakespeare
Your bait of falsehood takes this carp of truth, And thus do we of wisdom and of reach, With windlasses and with assays of bias, By indirections find directions out.
William Shakespeare
I hold it cowardice To rest mistrustful where a noble heart Hath pawned an open hand in sign of love.
William Shakespeare
You shall more command with years than with your weapons.
William Shakespeare
As love is full of unbefitting strains, All wanton as a child, skipping and vain, Form'd by the eye and therefore, like the eye, Full of strange shapes, of habits and of forms, Varying in subjects as the eye doth roll To every varied object in his glance
William Shakespeare
To think but nobly of my grandmother: Good wombs have borne bad sons.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Wherefore was I to this keen mockery born? When at your hands did I deserve this scorn? Is't not enough, is't not enough, young man, That I did never, no, nor never can, Deserve a sweet look from Demetrius' eye, But you must flout my insufficiency?
William Shakespeare
I am misanthropos, and hate mankind, For thy part, I do wish thou wert a dog, That I might love thee something.
William Shakespeare
That thou art blamed shall not be thy defect, For slander's mark was ever yet the fair The ornament of beauty is suspect, A crow that flies in heaven's sweetest air.
William Shakespeare
A rarer spirit never Did steer humanity but you gods will give us Some faults to make us men.
William Shakespeare
Your wisdom is consum'd in confidence. Do not go forth to-day.
William Shakespeare
A scar nobly got is a good livery of honor.
William Shakespeare
The urging of that word, judgment, hath bred a kind of remorse in me.
William Shakespeare
I long To hear the story of your life, which must Take the ear strangely.
William Shakespeare
Virtue that transgresses is but patched with sin and sin that amends is but patched with virtue.
William Shakespeare
Love goes toward love as schoolboys from their books, But love from love, toward school with heavy looks.
William Shakespeare
Thou canst not speak of what thou dost not feel.
William Shakespeare
Thou art a Castilian King urinal!
William Shakespeare
Now 'tis spring, and weeds are shallow-rooted Suffer them now and they'll o'ergrow the garden.
William Shakespeare
To loathe the taste of sweetness, whereof little more than a little is by much too much.
William Shakespeare
