More quotes by William Shakespeare
Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
That affable familiar ghost Which nightly gulls him with intelligence.
William Shakespeare
'Tis better to be vile than vile esteemed, When not to be, receives reproach of being, And the just pleasure lost, which is so deemed, Not by our feeling, but by others' seeing.
William Shakespeare
Polonius: Do you know me, my lord? Hamlet: Excellent well. You are a fishmonger.
William Shakespeare
Now I am past all comforts here, but prayer.
William Shakespeare
You are not wood, you are not stones, but men And being men, hearing the will of Caesar, It will inflame you, it will make you mad.
William Shakespeare
When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married.
William Shakespeare
But like of each thing that in season grows.
William Shakespeare
