The weight of this sad time we must obey, Speak what we feel, not what we ought to say. The oldest hath borne most: we that are young Shall never see so much, nor live so long.
William Shakespeare

More quotes by William Shakespeare
The amity that wisdom knits not, folly may easily untie.
William Shakespeare
Thine eyes I love, and they as pitying me, Knowing thy heart torment me with disdain, Have put on black, and loving mourners be, Looking with pretty ruth upon my pain.
William Shakespeare
Whose heart the accustom'd sight of death makes hard.
William Shakespeare
Against ill chances men are ever merry, But heaviness foreruns the good event.
William Shakespeare
Profit is a blessing, if it's not stolen.
William Shakespeare
Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove. O, no! It is an ever-fixed mark, That looks on tempests and is never shaken. It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
William Shakespeare
Before, I loved thee as a brother, John, But now, I do respect thee as my soul.
William Shakespeare
My love is strengthen'd, though more weak in seeming I love not less, though less the show appear: That love is merchandised whose rich esteeming The owner's tongue doth publish every where.
William Shakespeare
I'll forbear And am fallen out with my more headier will To take the indisposed and sickly fit For the sound man.
William Shakespeare
No man means evil but the devil, and we shall know him by his horns.
William Shakespeare
Some grief shows much of love, But much of grief shows still some want of wit.
William Shakespeare
Winding up days with toil and nights with sleep.
William Shakespeare
Love like a shadow flies when substance love pursues Pursuing that that flies, and flying what pursues.
William Shakespeare
Our content Is our best having.
William Shakespeare
O, how I faint when I of you do write, Knowing a better spirit doth use your name, And in the praise thereof spends all his might To make me tongue-tied speaking of your fame.
William Shakespeare
But when the fox hath once got in his nose, He'll soon find means to make the body follow.
William Shakespeare
My crown is in my heart, not on my head.
William Shakespeare
Old fashions please me best I am not so nice To change true rules for odd inventions.
William Shakespeare
Why, all delights are vain but that most vain, Which, with pain purchas'd, doth inherit pain.
William Shakespeare
Canst thou not minister to a mind diseased, Pluck from the memory a rooted sorrow, Raze out the written troubles of the brain
William Shakespeare
