In me thou see'st the twilight of such day As after sunset fadeth in the west, Which by and by black night doth take away Death's second self, that seals up all in rest. -Sonnet 73

More quotes by William Shakespeare
You undergo too strict a paradox, Striving to make an ugly deed look fair.
William Shakespeare
Let me be boiled to death with melancholy.
William Shakespeare
The truest poetry is the most feigning.
William Shakespeare
If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men’s cottages princes’ palaces. It is a good divine that follows his own instructions: I can easier teach twenty what were good to be done, than be one of the twenty to follow mine own teaching.
William Shakespeare
Besides, our nearness to the King in love Is near the hate of those love not the King.
William Shakespeare
To move is to stir, and to be valiant is to stand therefore, if tou art mov'd, thou runst away. (To be angry is to move, to be brave is to stand still. Therefore, if you're angry, you'll run away.)
William Shakespeare
What many men desire--that 'many' may be meant By the fool multitude that choose by show, Not learning more than the fond eye doth teach, Which pries not to th' interior, but like the martlet Builds in the weather on the outward wall, Even in the force and road of casualty.
William Shakespeare
All surfeit is the father of much fast.
William Shakespeare
Thy best of rest is sleep, And that thou oft provok'st yet grossly fear'st Thy death, which is no more.
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
Things at the worst will cease or else climb upward To what they were before.
William Shakespeare
I'll never Be such a gosling to obey instinct, but stand As is a man were author of himself And knew no other kin.
William Shakespeare
Seek happy nights to happy days.W
William Shakespeare
No, by my soul, I never in my life Did hear a challenge urged more modestly, Unless a brother should a brother dare To gentle exercise and proof of arms.
William Shakespeare
O that men's ears should be To counsel deaf but not to flattery!
William Shakespeare
My tongue will tell the anger of my heart, or else my heart concealing it will break.
William Shakespeare
There is no love-broker in the world can more prevail in man's commendation with woman than report of valor.
William Shakespeare
Liberty plucks justice by the nose The baby beats the nurse, and quite athwart Goes all decorum.
William Shakespeare
Time, whose millioned accidents creep in betwixt vows, and change decrees of kings, tan sacred beauty, blunt the sharpest intents, divert strong minds to the course of altering things.
William Shakespeare
Drink down all unkindness.
William Shakespeare
