And keep you in the rear of your affection, Out of the shot and danger of desire, The chariest maid is prodigal enough If she unmasks her beauty to the moon.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
What is a man, if his chief good and market of his time be but to sleep and feed? a beast, no more. Sure he that made us with such large discourse, looking before and after, gave us not that capability and god-like reason to fust in us unused.
William Shakespeare
All fancy-sick she is and pale of cheer, with sighs of love, that costs the fresh blood dear.
William Shakespeare
When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions.
William Shakespeare
In sooth I know not why I am so sad. It wearies me, you say it wearies you But how I caught it, found it, or came by it, What stuff 'tis made of, whereof it is born, I am to learn.
William Shakespeare
I see a man's life is a tedious one.
William Shakespeare
Let husbands know Their wives have sense like them. They see, and smell, And have their palates both for sweet and sour, As husbands have.
William Shakespeare
The urging of that word, judgment, hath bred a kind of remorse in me.
William Shakespeare
When he shall die, Take him and cut him out in little stars, And he will make the face of heaven so fine That all the world will be in love with night And pay no worship to the garish sun.
William Shakespeare
The clamorous owl that nightly hoots and wonders At our quaint spirits.
William Shakespeare
Sometimes, less is more.
William Shakespeare
If she be not honest, chaste, and true, there's no man happy.
William Shakespeare
I do beseech you- Though I perchance am vicious in my guess , that your wisdom yet From one that so imperfectly conjects Would take no notice, nor build yourself a trouble Out of his scattering and unsure observance.
William Shakespeare
I will be free, even to the uttermost, as I please, in words.
William Shakespeare
His jest will savour but of shallow wit, When thousands weep, more than did laugh at it.
William Shakespeare
Within the hollow crown That rounds the mortal temples of a king Keeps Death his court.
William Shakespeare
O, Men's vows are women's traitors! All good seeming, By thy revolt, O husband, shall be thought Put on for villainy, not born where't grows, But worn a bait for ladies.
William Shakespeare
Yet nor the lays of birds nor the sweet smell Of different flowers in odour and in hue Could make me any summer's story tell, Or from their proud lap pluck them where they grew Nor did I wonder at the lily's white, Nor praise the deep vermilion in the rose They were but sweet, but figures of delight, Drawn after you, you pattern of all those.
William Shakespeare
The seasons change their manners, as the year Had found some months asleep and leapt them over.
William Shakespeare
The Foole doth thinke he is wise, but the wiseman knowes himselfe to be a Foole.
William Shakespeare
No legacy is so rich as honesty.
William Shakespeare
