More quotes by William Shakespeare
Being daily swallowed by men's eyes, They surfeited with honey and began To loathe the taste of sweetness, whereof a little More than a little is by much too much. So, when he had occasion to be seen, He was but as the cuckoo is in June. Heard, not regarded.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
I have not slept one wink.
William Shakespeare
As good luck would have it, comes in one Mistress Page, gives intelligence of Ford's approach, and in her invention, and Ford's wife's distraction, they conveyed me into a buck-basket.
William Shakespeare
He that sleeps feels not the tooth-ache
William Shakespeare
Are there no stones in heaven But what serves for thunder?
William Shakespeare
Good with out evil is like light with out darkness which in turn is like righteousness whith out hope.
William Shakespeare
By God, I cannot flatter, I do defy The tongues of soothers! but a braver place In my heart's love hath no man than yourself. Nay, task me to my word approve me, lord.
William Shakespeare
Thou hast the most unsavoury similes.
William Shakespeare
Nature her custom holds, Let shame say what it will.
William Shakespeare
