More quotes by William Shakespeare
Yet but three come one more. Two of both kinds make up four. Ere she comes curst and sad. Cupid is a knavish lad. Thus to make poor females mad.
William Shakespeare
When I have plucked the rose, I cannot give it vital growth again, It needs must wither. I'll smell it on the tree.
William Shakespeare
I am not mad I would to heaven I were! For then, 'tis like I should forget myself O, if I could, what grief should I forget!
William Shakespeare
In such business Action is eloquence, and the eyes of th’ ignorant More learned than the ears.
William Shakespeare
But the strong base and building of my love is as the very centre of the earth, drawing all things to it.
William Shakespeare
The king-becoming graces, As justice, verity, temp'rance, stableness, Bounty, perseverance, mercy, lowliness, Devotion, patience, courage, fortitude, I have no relish of them, but abound In the division of each several crime, Acting in many ways.
William Shakespeare
Melancholy is the nurse of frenzy.
William Shakespeare
What made me love thee? let that persuade thee, there's something extraordinary in thee
William Shakespeare
Time's glory is to command contending kings, To unmask falsehood, and bring truth to light.
William Shakespeare
What man art thou that, thus bescreened in night, So stumblest on my counsel? *Who are you? Why do you hide in the darkness and listen to my private thoughts?*
William Shakespeare
By heaven, I do love: and it hath taught me to rhyme, and to be mekancholy.
William Shakespeare
But whate'er I am, nor I nor any man that but man is, With nothing shall be pleased 'til he be eased With being nothing.
William Shakespeare
'Tis better to be vile than vile esteemed, When not to be, receives reproach of being, And the just pleasure lost, which is so deemed, Not by our feeling, but by others' seeing.
William Shakespeare
Give me that man that is not passion's slave, and I will wear him in my heart's core, in my heart of heart, as I do thee.
William Shakespeare
The summer's flow'r is to the summer sweet, Though to itself it only live and die' But if that flow'r with base infection meet, The basest weed outbraves his dignity: For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds.
William Shakespeare
I am too old to fawn upon a nurse, Too far in years to be a pupil now.
William Shakespeare
Good reasons must of force give place to better.
William Shakespeare
Even as one heat another heat expels, or as one nail by strength drives out another, so the remembrance of my former love is by a newer object quite forgotten.
William Shakespeare
Some falls the means are happier to rise.
William Shakespeare
What's done cannot be undone. To bed, to bed, to bed.
William Shakespeare
