More quotes by William Shakespeare
For my own part, I shall be glad to learn of noble men.
William Shakespeare
To persevere In obstinate condolement is a course Of impious stubbornness: 'tis unmanly grief.
William Shakespeare
What should we speak of When we are old as you? when we shall hear The rain and wind beat dark December? how, In this our pinching cave, shall we discourse The freezing hours away?
William Shakespeare
We bring forth weeds when our quick minds lie still.
William Shakespeare
Ay, but hearken, sir though the chameleon Love can feed on the air, I am one that am nourished by my victuals, and would fain have meat.
William Shakespeare
Refrain to-night And that shall lend a kind of easiness To the next abstinence, the next more easy For use almost can change the stamp of nature, And either master the devil or throw him out With wondrous potency.
William Shakespeare
If her breath were as terrible as her terminations, there were no living near her, she would infect to the north star!
William Shakespeare
See where she comes apparelled like the spring.
William Shakespeare
See the minutes, how they run, How many make the hour full complete How many hours bring about the day How many days will finish up the year How many years a mortal man may live.
William Shakespeare
Ere yet the salt of most unrighteous tears Had left the flushing of her gallèd eyes, She married. O, most wicked speed, to post With such dexterity to incestuous sheets!
William Shakespeare
Prosperity's the very bond of love, Whose fresh complexion and whose heart together Affliction alters.
William Shakespeare
What is a man, if his chief good and market of his time be but to sleep and feed? a beast, no more. Sure he that made us with such large discourse, looking before and after, gave us not that capability and god-like reason to fust in us unused.
William Shakespeare
Here comes a pair of very strange beasts, which in all tongues are called fools.
William Shakespeare
The happiest youth, viewing his progress through, What perils past, what crosses to ensue, Would shut the book, and sit him down and die.
William Shakespeare
Bondage is hoarse, and may not speak aloud.
William Shakespeare
The poet's eye, in a fine frenzy rolling, doth glance from heaven to Earth, from Earth to heaven and as imagination bodies forth the forms of things unknown, the poet's pen turns them to shape, and gives to airy nothing a local habitation and a name such tricks hath strong imagination.
William Shakespeare
And, looking on it with lack-lustre eye, Says very wisely, It is ten o'clock: Thus we may see, quoth he, how the world wags.
William Shakespeare
For murder, though it have no tongue, will speak With most miraculous organ.
William Shakespeare
Heat not a furnace for your foe so hot that it do singe yourself.
William Shakespeare
To hell, allegiance! vows, to the blackest devil! Conscience, and grace, to the profoundest pit! I dare damnation: To this point I stand,-- That both the worlds I give to negligence, Let come what comes only I'll be reveng'd.
William Shakespeare
