More quotes by William Shakespeare
Ay, is it not a language I speak?
William Shakespeare
Now see that noble and most sovereign reason, Like sweet bells jangled, out of tune and harsh.
William Shakespeare
Did he so often lodge in open field, In winter's cold and summer's parching heat, To conquer France, his true inheritance?
William Shakespeare
Like one who draws the model of a house beyond his power to build it who, half through, gives o'er, and leaves his part-created cost a naked subject to the weeping clouds.
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
Small things make base men proud.
William Shakespeare
Brutus, I do observe you now of late: I have not from your eyes that gentleness And show of love as I was wont to have: You bear too stubborn and too strange a hand Over your friend that loves you. Poor Brutus, with himself at war, Forgets the shows of love to other men.
William Shakespeare
Great men may jest with saints 'tis wit in them But, in the less foul profanation.
William Shakespeare
Is there no respect of place, persons, nor time in you?
William Shakespeare
These violent delights have violent ends And in their triumph die, like fire and powder, Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey Is loathsome in his own deliciousness And in the taste confounds the appetite. Therefore love moderately long love doth so Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
William Shakespeare
Cold indeed, and labor lost: Then farewell heat, and welcome frost!
William Shakespeare
Modest doubt is called the beacon of the wise.
William Shakespeare
Who is so firm that can't be seduced?
William Shakespeare
Let no such man be trusted.
William Shakespeare
What my tongue dares not that my heart shall say
William Shakespeare
Let every man be master of his time.
William Shakespeare
Love is begun by time and time qualifies the spark and fire of it.
William Shakespeare
Give me a staff of honor for mine age, But not a sceptre to control the world.
William Shakespeare
Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more.
William Shakespeare
I have sounded the very base-string of humility.
William Shakespeare
