More quotes by William Shakespeare
That is my home of love: if I have ranged, Like him that travels I return again, Just to the time, not with the time exchanged.
William Shakespeare
For by his face straight shall you know his heart.
William Shakespeare
Confess yourself to heaven, Repent what's past, avoid what is to come, And do not spread the compost on the weeds To make them ranker.
William Shakespeare
But there is no such man for, brother, men Can counsel and speak comfort to that grief Which they themselves not feel but, tasting it, Their counsel turns to passion, which before Would give preceptial medicine to rage, Fetter strong madness in a silken thread, Charm ache with air and agony with words.
William Shakespeare
If thou dost seek to have what thou dost hide, By self-example mayst thou be denied.

William Shakespeare
A contract of eternal bond of love, Confirm'd by mutual joinder of your hands, Arrested by the holy close of lips, Strength'ned by the interchangement of your rings, And all the ceremony of this compact Seal'd in my function, by my testimony.
William Shakespeare
Unhappy that I am, I cannot heave My heart into my mouth.
William Shakespeare
That England, that was wont to conquer others, Hath made a shameful conquest of itself.
William Shakespeare
To persevere In obstinate condolement is a course Of impious stubbornness: 'tis unmanly grief.
William Shakespeare
Let me tell you, Cassius, you yourself are much condemned to have an itching palm.
William Shakespeare
True, I talk of dreams, Which are the children of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy, Which is as thin of substance as the air, And more inconstant than the wind, who woos Even now the frozen bosom of the north, And, being anger'd, puffs away from thence, Turning his side to the dew-dropping south.
William Shakespeare
Thou shalt not stir one foot to seek a foe.
William Shakespeare
Being of no power to make his wishes good: His promises fly so beyond his state That what he speaks is all in debt he owes For every word.
William Shakespeare
