More quotes by William Shakespeare
If all the year were playing holidays To sport would be as tedious as to work.
William Shakespeare
O, she's warm! If this be magic, let it be an art Lawful as eating.
William Shakespeare
... And death unloads thee.
William Shakespeare
The wind-shak'd surge, with high and monstrous main, Seems to cast water on the burning Bear, And quench the guards of the ever-fixed pole.
William Shakespeare
As chaste as is the bud ere it be blown.
William Shakespeare
Neither my place, nor aught I heard of business, Hath raised me from my bed nor doth the general care Take hold on me for my particular grief Is of so floodgate and o'erbearing nature That it engluts and swallows other sorrows, And it is still itself.
William Shakespeare
For as a surfeit of the sweetest things The deepest loathing to the stomach brings, Or as tie heresies that men do leave Are hated most of those they did deceive, So thou, my surfeit and my heresy, Of all be hated, but the most of me!
William Shakespeare
O faithless coward! O dishonest wretch! Wilt thou be made a man out of my vice?
William Shakespeare
This fellow pecks up wit, as pigeons peas And utters it again when God doth please: He is wit's pedler and retails his wares.
William Shakespeare
Silence is only commendable In a neat's tongue dried, and a maid not vendible.
William Shakespeare
Proper deformity shows not in the fiend So horrid as in woman.
William Shakespeare
In God's name cheerly on, courageous friends, To reap the harvest of perpetual peace By this one bloody trial of sharp war.
William Shakespeare
I am asham'd that women are so simple To offer war where they should kneel for peace.
William Shakespeare
My pride fell with my fortunes.
William Shakespeare
Too nice, and yet too true!
William Shakespeare
A man should be what he seems.
William Shakespeare
Some men never seem to grow old. Always active in thought, always ready to adopt new ideas, they are never chargeable with foggyism. Satisfied, yet ever dissatisfied, settled, yet ever unsettled, they always enjoy the best of what is, are the first to find the best of what will be.
William Shakespeare
Methinks sometimes I have no more wit than a Christian or an ordinary man has but I am a great eater of beef, and I believe that does harm to my wit.
William Shakespeare
All things that we ordained festival Turn from their office to black funeral-- Our instruments to melancholy bells, Our wedding cheer to a sad burial feast Our solemn hymns to sullen dirges change Our bridal flowers serve for a buried corse And all things change them to the contrary.
William Shakespeare
Bad is the trade that must play fool to sorrow, Ang'ring itself and others.
William Shakespeare
