More quotes by William Shakespeare
Nor aught so good but strained from that fair use, Revolts from true birth stumbling on abuse.
William Shakespeare
We have some salt of our youth in us.
William Shakespeare
The seasons alter: hoary-headed frosts Fall in the fresh lap of the crimson rose, And on old Hiems' thin and icy crown An odorous chaplet of sweet summer buds Is, as in mockery, set. The spring, the summer, The childing autumn, angry winter, change Their wonted liveries, and the mazed world, By their increase, now knows not which is which.
William Shakespeare
Some are born great, others achieve greatness.
William Shakespeare
Time's glory is to command contending kings, To unmask falsehood, and bring truth to light.
William Shakespeare
He's truly valiant that can wisely suffer The worst that man can breathe, and make his wrongs His outsides, to wear them like his raiment, carelessly, And ne'er prefer his injuries to his heart, To bring it into danger.
William Shakespeare
Go, bid the soldiers shoot.
William Shakespeare
Nature her custom holds, Let shame say what it will.
William Shakespeare
Fair thoughts and happy hours attend on you.
William Shakespeare
Mechanic slaves With greasy aprons, rules, and hammers, shall Uplift us to the view.
William Shakespeare
Well, I'll repent, and that suddenly, while I am in some liking I shall be out of heart shortly, and then I shall have no strength to repent.
William Shakespeare
I will not be sworn but love may transform me to an oyster but I'll take my oath on it, till he have made an oyster of me he shall never make me such a fool.
William Shakespeare
A turn or two I'll walk To still my beating mind.
William Shakespeare
When faced with a sea of troubles, take action, and in so doing end it.
William Shakespeare
Thou know'st 'tis common all that lives must die, Passing through nature to eternity.
William Shakespeare
Let witchcraft join with beauty, lust with both!
William Shakespeare
Thus can the demigod Authority Make us pay down for our offense by weight The words of heaven on whom it will, it will, On whom it will not, so: yet still 'tis just.
William Shakespeare
O teach me how I should forget to think (1.1.224)
William Shakespeare
Home-keeping youth have ever homely wits.
William Shakespeare
A poor thing, perhaps, but my own.
William Shakespeare
