More quotes by William Shakespeare
The love of heaven makes one heavenly.
William Shakespeare
The fashion of the world is to avoid cost, and you encounter it.
William Shakespeare
If there be no great love in the beginning, yet heaven may decrease it upon better acquaintance, when we are married and have more occasion to know one another: I hope, upon familiarity will grow more contempt.
William Shakespeare
Drown thyself? Drown cats and blind puppies.
William Shakespeare
For it falls out That what we have we prize not to the worth Whiles we enjoy it, but being lacked and lost, Why, then we rack the value, then we find The virtue that possession would not show us While it was ours.
William Shakespeare
And do as adversaries do in law, strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends.
William Shakespeare
I will instruct my sorrows to be proud for grief is proud, and makes his owner stoop.
William Shakespeare
He that sleeps feels not the tooth-ache
William Shakespeare
Tis in ourselves that we are thus, or thus.

William Shakespeare
Give it an understanding, but no tongue.
William Shakespeare
A good heart 'is worth gold.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
All impediments in fancy's course Are motives of more fancy.
William Shakespeare
How long a time lies in one little word?
William Shakespeare
Ruin has taught me to ruminate, That Time will come and take my love away. This thought is as a death, which cannot choose But weep to have that which it fears to lose.
William Shakespeare
Ingrateful man with liquorish draughts, and morsels unctuous, greases his pure mind that from it all consideration slips.
William Shakespeare
'Tis thought the king is dead we will not stay. The bay trees in our country are all wither'd.
William Shakespeare
For grief is crowned with consolation.
William Shakespeare
