Teach me, dear creature, how to think and speak Lay open to my earthy-gross conceit, Smother'd in errors, feeble, shallow, weak, The folded meaning of your words' deceit.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
What's the newest grief? Each minute tunes a new one.
William Shakespeare
The gray-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night, Checkering the eastern clouds with streaks of light.
William Shakespeare
That man that hath a tongue, I say is no man, if with his tongue he cannot win a woman.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
As I hope For quiet days, fair issue, and long life, With such love as 'tis now, the murkiest den, The most opportune place, the strong'st suggestion Our worser genius can, shall never melt Mine honour into lust, to take away The edge of that day's celebration, When I shall think or Phoebus' steeds are founder'd Or Night kept chain'd below.
William Shakespeare
Literature is a comprehensive essence of the intellectual life of a nation.
William Shakespeare
You draw me, you hard-hearted adamant But yet you draw not iron, for my heart Is true as steel: leave you your power to draw, And I shall have no power to follow you.
William Shakespeare
My cousin's a fool, and thou art another.
William Shakespeare
What is done cannot be now amended.
William Shakespeare
Tis in ourselves that we are thus, or thus.
William Shakespeare
He that is giddy thinks the world turns round.
William Shakespeare
Through tattered clothes great vices do appear Robes and furred gowns hide all. Plate sin with gold and the strong lance of justice hurtless breaks. Arm it in rags, a pigmy's straw does pierce it.
William Shakespeare
What drink'st thou oft, instead of homage sweet, But poisoned flattery?
William Shakespeare
We are time's subjects, and time bids be gone.
William Shakespeare
Take physic, pomp Expose thyself to feel what wretches feel, That thou mayst shake the superflux to them And show the heavens more just.
William Shakespeare
Let's meet as little as we can
William Shakespeare
She told her, while she kept it, 'Twould make her amiable and subdue my father Entirely to her love, but if she lost it Or made a gift of it, my father's eye Should hold her loathed and his spirits should hunt After new fancies.
William Shakespeare
My life, my joy, my food, my ail the world!
William Shakespeare
Give them great meals of beef and iron and steel, they will eat like wolves and fight like devils.
William Shakespeare
I hate ingratitude more in a man than lying, vainness, babbling, drunkenness, or any taint of vice whose strong corruption inhabits our frail blood.
William Shakespeare
