More quotes by William Shakespeare
I hold the world but as the world, Gratiano A stage where every man must play a part, And mine is a sad one.
William Shakespeare
More of your conversation would infect my brain.
William Shakespeare
My nature is subdued to what it works in, like the dyer's hand.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Men have marble, women waxen, minds.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
What the great ones do, the less will prattle of
William Shakespeare
There is little choice in a barrel of rotten apples.
William Shakespeare
That thou art blamed shall not be thy defect, For slander's mark was ever yet the fair The ornament of beauty is suspect, A crow that flies in heaven's sweetest air.
William Shakespeare
Love does not see with the eyes, but with the soul.
William Shakespeare
Pause awhile, And let my counsel sway you.
William Shakespeare
A man loves the meat in his youth that he cannot endure in his age.
William Shakespeare
A victory is twice itself when the achiever brings home full numbers.

We must every one be a man of his own fancy.
