More quotes by 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
Thou whoreson zed! Thou unnecessary letter! My lord, if you will give me leave, I will tread this unbolted villain into mortar, and daub the wall of a jakes with him. *all cheer for Shakespearean insults*
William Shakespeare
There is a devilish mercy in the judge, if you'll implore it, that will free your life, but fetter you till death.
William Shakespeare
A good wit will make use of anything.
William Shakespeare
Love that we cannot have is the one that lasts the longest,hurts the deepest,but feels the strongest
William Shakespeare
Is there no pity sitting in the clouds That sees into the bottom of my grief? O sweet my mother, cast me not away! Delay this marriage for a month, a week, Or if you do not, make the bridal bed In that dim monument where Tybalt lies.
William Shakespeare
For I am fresh of spirit, and resolved To meet all perils very constantly.
William Shakespeare
The hand that hath made you fair hath made you good. Pity is the virtue of the law, and none but tyrants use it cruelly.
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
Thine eyes I love, and they as pitying me, Knowing thy heart torment me with disdain, Have put on black, and loving mourners be, Looking with pretty ruth upon my pain.
William Shakespeare
On the bat’s back I do fly After summer merrily.
William Shakespeare
Fear no more the heat o' th' sun Nor the furious winters' rages Thou thy worldly task hast done, Home art gone, and ta'en thy wages. Golden lads and girls all must, As chimney-sweepers, come to dust.
William Shakespeare
I will through and through Cleanse the foul body of th' infected world, If they will patiently receive my medicine.
William Shakespeare
Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by
William Shakespeare
Would I were dead, if God's good will were so, For what is in this world but grief and woe?
William Shakespeare
Is this a vision? Is this a dream? Do I sleep?
William Shakespeare
CLEOPATRA: If it be love indeed, tell me how much. ANTONY: There's beggary in the love that can be reckoned. CLEOPATRA: I'll set a bourne how far to be belov'd. ANTONY: Then must thou needs find out new heaven, new earth.
William Shakespeare
Men are April when they woo, December when they wed.
William Shakespeare
Thy words, I grant are bigger, for I wear not, my dagger in my mouth.
William Shakespeare
And will he not come again? And will he not come again? No, no, he is dead. Go to thy deathbed. He never will come again.
William Shakespeare
