More quotes by William Shakespeare
How many fond fools serve mad jealousy!
William Shakespeare
Ambition, the soldier's virtue.
William Shakespeare
It is silliness to live when to live is torment.
William Shakespeare
It is silliness to live when to live is torment, and then have we a prescription to die when death is our physician.
William Shakespeare
Therefore I tell my sorrows to the stones Who, though they cannot answer my distress, Yet in some sort they are better than the tribunes, For that they will not intercept my tale: When I do weep, they humbly at my feet Receive my tears and seem to weep with me And, were they but attired in grave weeds, Rome could afford no tribune like to these.
William Shakespeare
Besides, our nearness to the King in love Is near the hate of those love not the King.
William Shakespeare
Glory is like a circle in the water, which never ceaseth to enlarge itself, till, by broad spreading, it disperse to naught.
William Shakespeare
My grief lies onward, and my joy behind.
William Shakespeare
Give me a bowl of wine, In this I bury all unkindness.
William Shakespeare
Ha. Against my will I am sent to bid you come into dinner. There's a double meaning in that. -Benedick (Much Ado)
William Shakespeare
Were beauty under twenty locks kept fast, yet love breaks through and picks them all at last.
William Shakespeare
Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.
William Shakespeare
It provokes the desire but it takes away the performance. Therefore much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him and it mars him it sets him on and it takes him off.
William Shakespeare
Tongues I'll hang on every tree That shall civil sayings show. . . .
William Shakespeare
Farewell the tranquil mind! farewell content! Farewell the plumed troops, and the big wars That make ambition virtue.
William Shakespeare
If it will feed nothing else, it will feed my revenge.
William Shakespeare
Princes have but their titles for their glories, An outward honor for an inward toil And, for unfelt imaginations, They often feel a world of restless cares.
William Shakespeare
My glass shall not persuade me I am old, So long as youth and thou are of one date But when in thee time's furrows I behold, Then look I death my days should expiate.
William Shakespeare
Now my charms are all o'erthrown.
William Shakespeare
The bashful virgin's sidelong looks of love, The matron's glance that would those looks reprove.
William Shakespeare
