More quotes by William Shakespeare
So. Lie there, my art.
William Shakespeare
The pow'r that I have on you is to spare you The malice towards you to forgive you.
William Shakespeare
What, keep a week away? Seven days and nights, Eightscore-eight hours, and lovers' absent hours More tedious than the dial eightscore times! O weary reckoning!
William Shakespeare
O, I do not like that paying back, 'tis a double labor.
William Shakespeare
The liquid drops of tears that you have shed Shall come again, transform'd to orient pearl, Advantaging their loan with interest Of ten times double gain of happiness.
William Shakespeare
Thou art an elm, my husband, I a vine.
William Shakespeare
Beauty, wit, High birth, vigour of bone, desert in service, Love, friendship, charity, are subjects all To envious and calumniating time.
William Shakespeare
For night's swift dragons cut the clouds full fast, And yonder shines Aurora's harbinger At whose approach ghosts wandring here and there Troop home to church-yards.... For fear lest day should look their shames upon, They willfully exile themselves from light, And must for aye consort with black brow'd night.
William Shakespeare
Pleasure and revenge Have ears more deaf than adders to the voice Of any true decision.
William Shakespeare
I'll say she looks as clear as morning roses newly washed with dew.
William Shakespeare
Free from gross passion or of mirth of anger constant spirit, not swerving with the blood, garnish'd and deck'd in modest compliment, not working with the eye without the ear, and but in purged judgement trusting neither? Such and so finely bolted didst thou seem.
William Shakespeare
The poorest service is repaid with thanks.
William Shakespeare
I kissed thee ere I killed thee. No way but this, Killing myself, to die upon a kiss.
William Shakespeare
Think'st thou I'd make a life of jealousy, To follow still the changes of the moon With fresh suspicions? No to be once in doubt Is once to be resolved.
William Shakespeare
And mind, with my heart in't and now farewell Till half an hour hence.
William Shakespeare
A fool, a fool! I met a fool i' th' forest, A motley fool! a miserable world! As I do live by food, I met a fool Who laid him down and basked him in the sun And railed on Lady Fortune in good terms, In good set terms, and yet a motley fool.
William Shakespeare
If thou engrossest all the griefs are thine, Thou robb'st me of a moiety.
William Shakespeare
My nature is subdued to what it works in, like the dyer's hand.
William Shakespeare
On the bat’s back I do fly After summer merrily.
William Shakespeare
And it is very much lamented,... That you have no such mirrors as will turn Your hidden worthiness into your eye That you might see your shadow.
William Shakespeare
