More quotes by William Shakespeare
Sorrow, like a heavy ringing bell, once set on ringing, with its own weight goes then little strength rings out the doleful knell.
William Shakespeare
See, what a ready tongue suspicion hath! He that but fears the thing he would not know, Hath, by instinct, knowledge from others' eyes, That what he feared is chanced.
William Shakespeare
Then was I as a tree whose boughs did bend with fruit but in one night, a storm or robbery, call it what you will, shook down my mellow hangings, nay, my leaves, and left me bare to weather.
William Shakespeare
If it will feed nothing else, it will feed my revenge.
William Shakespeare
When you depart from me sorrow abides and happiness takes his leave.
William Shakespeare
If I can catch him once upon the hip, I will feed fat the ancient grudge I bear him.
William Shakespeare
O thou invisible spirit of wine, if thou hast no name to be known by, let us call thee devil.
William Shakespeare
That, sir, which serves and seeks for gain, And follows but for form, Will pack, when it begins to rain, And leave thee in a storm.
William Shakespeare
You cannot make gross sins look clear: To revenge is no valour, but to bear.
William Shakespeare
Time's glory is to command contending kings, To unmask falsehood, and bring truth to light.
William Shakespeare
That truth should be silent I had almost forgot. (Enobarbus)
William Shakespeare
Give me my sin again.
William Shakespeare
But thy eternal summer shall not fade.
William Shakespeare
Remember thee! Ay, thou poor ghost, while memory holds a seat In this distracted globe.
William Shakespeare
Before the curing of a strong disease, Even in the instant of repair and health, The fit is strongest. Evils that take leave, On their departure most of all show evil.
William Shakespeare
Being daily swallowed by men's eyes, They surfeited with honey and began To loathe the taste of sweetness, whereof a little More than a little is by much too much. So, when he had occasion to be seen, He was but as the cuckoo is in June. Heard, not regarded.
William Shakespeare
After your death you were better have a bad epitaph than their ill report while you live.
William Shakespeare
Ask me no reason why I love you for though Love use Reason for his physician, he admits him not for his counsellor.
William Shakespeare
A very ancient and fish-like smell.
William Shakespeare
Supposition all our lives shall be stuck full of eyes For treason is but trusted like the fox, Who, ne'er so tame, so cherished and locked up, Will have a wild trick of his ancestors.
William Shakespeare
