More quotes by William Shakespeare
I thank you all and here dismiss you all, and to the love and favor of my country commit myself, my person, and the cause.
William Shakespeare
When truth kills truth, O devilish holy fray!
William Shakespeare
Proper deformity shows not in the fiend So horrid as in woman.
William Shakespeare
I do know of these That therefore only are reputed wise For saying nothing.
William Shakespeare
For conspiracy, I know not how it tastes, though it be dished For me to try how.
William Shakespeare
You are yoked with a lamb, That carries anger as the flint bears fire Who, much enforced, shows a hasty spank, And straight is cold again.
William Shakespeare
Virtue is chok'd with foul ambition
William Shakespeare
There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
What the vengeance, could he not speak 'em fair?
William Shakespeare
Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more.
William Shakespeare
In law, what plea so tainted and corrupts, but being seasoned with a gracious voice obscures the show of evil.
William Shakespeare
Things done well and with a care, exempt themselves from fear.
William Shakespeare
O, I have suffered With those that I saw suffer! a brave vessel (Who had no doubt some noble creature in her) Dashed all to pieces! O, the cry did knock Against my very heart! Poor souls, they perished!
William Shakespeare
No man's pie is freed From his ambitious finger.
William Shakespeare
He that is giddy thinks the world turns round.
William Shakespeare
But Kate, dost thou understand thus much English? Canst thou love me? Catherine: I cannot tell. Henry: Can any of your neighbours tell, Kate? I'll ask them.
William Shakespeare
I am not of that feather, to shake off my friend when he must need me
William Shakespeare
That but this blow Might be the be-all and the end-all here, But here, upon this bank and shoal of time, We'ld jump the life to come.
William Shakespeare
Hear me profess sincerely: had I a dozen sons, each in my love alike, and none less dear than thine and my good Marcius, I had rather have eleven die nobly for their country than one voluptuously surfeit out of action.
William Shakespeare
