More quotes by William Shakespeare
But 'tis common proof, that lowliness is young ambition's ladder, whereto the climber-upward turns his face but when he once attains the upmost round, he then turns his back, looks in the clouds, scorning the vase defrees by which he did ascend.
William Shakespeare
Ring the alarum-bell! Blow, wind! come, wrack! At least we'll die with harness on our back.
William Shakespeare
See, what a ready tongue suspicion hath! He that but fears the thing he would not know, Hath, by instinct, knowledge from others' eyes, That what he feared is chanced.
William Shakespeare
Fair thoughts and happy hours attend on you.
William Shakespeare
If he be so resolved, I can o'ersway him for he loves to hear That unicorns may be betrayed with trees And bears with glasses, elephants with holes, Lions with toils, and men with flatterers
William Shakespeare
There lives within the very flame of love A kind of wick or snuff that will abate it.
William Shakespeare
Honour travels in a strait so narrow Where one but goes abreast.
William Shakespeare
The hideous god of war.
William Shakespeare
Since I do purpose to marry, I will think nothing to any purpose that the world can say against it and therefore never floutat me for what I have said against it for man is a giddy thing, and this is my conclusion.
William Shakespeare
Friendship is constant in all other things Save in the office and affairs of love. Therefore all hearts in love use their own tongues. Let every eye negotiate for itself, And trust no agent for beauty is a witch Against whose charms faith melteth into blood.
William Shakespeare
Are you sure/That we are awake? It seems to me/That yet we sleep, we dream
William Shakespeare
Keep thy friend Under thy own life's key.
William Shakespeare
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
William Shakespeare
So quick bright things come to confusion.
William Shakespeare
Love is a smoke rais'd with the fume of sighs being purg'd, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes being vex'd, a sea nourish'd with lovers' tears what is it else? A madness most discreet, a choking gall, and a preserving sweet.
William Shakespeare
Beggar that I am, I am even poor in thanks, but I thank you and sure, dear friends, my thanks are too dear a halfpenny.
William Shakespeare
If I shall be condemned Upon surmises, all proofs sleeping else But what your jealousies awake, I tell you 'Tis rigor and not law.
William Shakespeare
As there comes light from heaven and words from breath, As there is sense in truth and truth in virtue
William Shakespeare
He was ever precise in promise-keeping.
William Shakespeare
You are an alchemist make gold of that.
William Shakespeare
