More quotes by William Shakespeare
The world must be peopled!
William Shakespeare
I say there is no darkness but ignorance.
William Shakespeare
Oh, how this spring of love resembleth, The uncertain glory of an April day, Which now shows all beauty of the Sun, And by and by a cloud takes all away
William Shakespeare
Jesu, Jesu, the mad days that I have spent! And to see how many of my old acquaintance are dead!
William Shakespeare
Words, vows, gifts, tears, and love's full sacrifice, He offers in another's enterprise But more in Troilus thousand-fold I see Than in the glass of Pandar's praise may be, Yet hold I off.
William Shakespeare
Men should be what they seem.
William Shakespeare
All of Creation’s a farce. Man was born as a joke. In his head his reason is buffeted Like wind-blown smoke. Life is a game. Everyone ridicules everyone else. But he who has the last laugh Laughs longest.
William Shakespeare
Comets importing change of times and states, Brandish your crystal tresses in the sky And with them scourge the bad revolting stars.
William Shakespeare
When we our betters see bearing our woes, We scarcely think our miseries our foes.
William Shakespeare
This senior-junior, giant-dwarf, Dan Cupid Regent of love-rhymes, lord of folded arms, The anointed sovereign of sighs and groans, Liege of all loiterers and malcontents.
William Shakespeare
What showers arise, blown with the windy tempest of my heart
William Shakespeare
Well, God give them wisdom that have it and those that are fools, let them use their talents.
William Shakespeare
There's such divinity doth hedge a king That treason can but peep to what it would.
William Shakespeare
Do not, as some ungracious pastors do, Show me the steep and thorny way to heaven Whilst, like a puff'd and reckless libertine, Himself the primrose path of dalliance treads And recks not his own read.
William Shakespeare
A lover goes toward his beloved as enthusiastically as a schoolboy leaving his books, but when he leaves his girlfriend, he feels as miserable as the schoolboy on his way to school. (Act 2, scene 2)
William Shakespeare
Every subject's duty is the Kings, but every subject's soul is his own.
William Shakespeare
You cannot make gross sins look clear: To revenge is no valour, but to bear.
William Shakespeare
An envious fever of pale and bloodless emulation.
William Shakespeare
For there was never yet philosoper That could endure the toothache patiently, However they have writ the style of gods, And made a push at chance and sufferance.
William Shakespeare
And sleep, that sometime shuts up sorrow's eye, Steal me awhile from mine own company.
William Shakespeare
