The cunning livery of hell.
William Shakespeare
There's daggers in men's smiles.
William Shakespeare
Faith, there hath been many great men that have flattered the people who ne'er loved them.
William Shakespeare
Who could refrain that had a heart to love and in that heart courage to make love known?
William Shakespeare
Lawyers Are: Perilous mouths.
William Shakespeare
The crow doth sing as sweetly as the lark When neither is attended and I think The nightingale, if she should sing by day When every goose is cackling, would be thought No better a musician than the wren. How many thing by season seasoned are To their right praise and true perfection!
William Shakespeare
I am very proud, revengeful, ambitious, with more offences at my beck than I have thoughts to put them in, imagination to give them shape, or time to act them in.
William Shakespeare
O heresy in fair, fit for these days, A giving hand, though foul, shall have fair praise.
William Shakespeare
I have ventured, Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders, This many summers in a sea of glory, But far beyond my depth. My high-blown pride At length broke under me, and now has left me, Weary and old with service, to the mercy Of a rude stream that must for ever hide me.
William Shakespeare
It is that fery person for all the orld, as just as you will desire and seven hundred pounds of moneys, and gold, and silver, is her grandsire upon his death's-bed-Got deliver to a joyful resurrections!
William Shakespeare
Good with out evil is like light with out darkness which in turn is like righteousness whith out hope.
William Shakespeare
An arrant traitor as any is in the universal world, or in France, or in England.
William Shakespeare
I may command where I adore.
William Shakespeare
Enjoy'd no sooner but despised straight, Past reason hunted, and no sooner had Past reason hated
William Shakespeare
I beseech you, Wrest once the law to your authority: To do a great right, do a little wrong.
William Shakespeare
My glass shall not persuade me I am old, So long as youth and thou are of one date But when in thee time's furrows I behold, Then look I death my days should expiate.
William Shakespeare
Listen to many, speak to a few.
William Shakespeare
Therefore, to be possess'd with double pomp, To guard a title that was rich before, To gild refined gold, to paint the lily, To throw a perfume on the violet, To smooth the ice, or add another hue Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish, Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.
William Shakespeare
If wishes would prevail with me, my purpose should not fail with me.
William Shakespeare
I am sure, Though you can guess what temperance should be, You know not what it is.
William Shakespeare
