More quotes by William Shakespeare
Slander, whose whisper over the world's diameter, as level as the cannon to its blank, transports its poisoned shot.
William Shakespeare
Nor stony tower, nor walls of beaten brass, Nor airless dungeon, nor strong links of iron, Can be retentive to the strength of spirit But life, being weary of these worldly bars, Never lacks power to dismiss itself.
William Shakespeare
I find my zenith doth depend upon A most auspicious star, whose influence If now I court not, but omit, my fortunes Will ever after droop.
William Shakespeare
Thus have I, Wall, my part discharged so And, being done, thus Wall away doth go.
William Shakespeare
Men's eyes were made to look, and let them gaze. I will not budge for no man's pleasure.
William Shakespeare
That if you be honest and fair, your honesty should admit no discourse to your beauty.
William Shakespeare
Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long / To speak of that which gives thee all thy might?
William Shakespeare
A maiden hath no tongue--but thought.

William Shakespeare
Tempt not a desperate man
William Shakespeare
Tis better using France than trusting France Let us be back'd with God, and with the seas, Which He hath given for fence impregnable, And with their helps only defend ourselves In them, and in ourselves, our safety lies.
William Shakespeare
Yield not thy neck To fortunes yoke, but let thy dauntless mind Still ride in triumph over all mischance.
William Shakespeare
I was born free as Caesar so were you
William Shakespeare
Look on beauty, and you shall see 'tis purchased by the weight which therein works a miracle in Nature, making them lightest that wear most of it: so are those crisped snaky golden locks which make such wanton gambols with the wind upon supposed fairness, often known to be the dowry of a second head, the skull that bred them in the sepulchre.
William Shakespeare
How many things by season seasoned are To their right praise and true perfection!
William Shakespeare
If I had my mouth, I would bite if I had my liberty, I would do my liking. In the meantime, let me be that I am, and seek not toalter me.
William Shakespeare
How is it that the clouds still hang on you?
William Shakespeare
Give obedience where 'tis truly owed.
