More quotes by William Shakespeare
When we mean to build, We first survey the plot, then draw the model And when we see the figure of the house, Then must we rate the cost of the erection.
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
Well could he ride, and often men would say, That horse his mettle from his rider takes: Proud of subjection, noble by the sway, What rounds, what bounds, what course, what stop he makes! And controversy hence a question takes, Whether the horse by him became his deed, Or he his manage by the well-doing steed.
William Shakespeare
Virtue preserv'd from fell destruction's blast, Led on by heaven, and crown'd with joy at last.
William Shakespeare
I will kill thee a hundred and fifty ways.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
England, bound in with the triumphant sea, Whose rocky shore beats back the envious siege Of watery Neptune.
William Shakespeare
Cupid is a knavish lad, Thus to make poor females mad.
William Shakespeare
Youth to itself rebels, though none else near.
William Shakespeare
Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting, Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
William Shakespeare
Thou knowest, winter tames man, woman, and beast.
William Shakespeare
I told you, sir, they were red-hot with drinking so full of valor that they smote the air, for breathing in their faces, beat the ground for kissing of their feet.
William Shakespeare
Woe to that land that's governed by a child.
William Shakespeare
Remuneration! O! That's the Latin word for three farthings
William Shakespeare
We are not the first Who with best meaning have incurred the worst
William Shakespeare
If I may trust the flattering truth of sleep, My dreams presage some joyful news at hand. My bosom's lord sits lightly in his throne, And all this day an unaccustomed spirit Lifts me above the ground with cheerful thoughts.
William Shakespeare
Take all the swift advantage of the hours.
William Shakespeare
