Alas, that love, so gentle in his view, Should be so tyrannous and rough in proof! *It’s sad. Love looks like a nice thing, but it’s actually very rough when you experience it.*

More quotes by William Shakespeare
I will instruct my sorrows to be proud for grief is proud, and makes his owner stoop.
William Shakespeare
The liquid drops of tears that you have shed Shall come again, transform'd to orient pearl, Advantaging their loan with interest Of ten times double gain of happiness.
William Shakespeare
It is not night when I do see your face.
William Shakespeare
I will make a Star-chamber matter of it.
William Shakespeare
Slanders, sir, for the satirical rogue says here that old men have grey beards, that their faces are wrinkled, their eyes purging think amber and plum-tree gum, and that they have a plentiful lack of wit, together with most weak hams.
William Shakespeare
Pause awhile, And let my counsel sway you.
William Shakespeare
The evil that men do lives after them the good is oft interred with their bones.
William Shakespeare
Macbeth to Witches: What are these So wither'd and so wild in their attire, That look not like th' inhabitants o' th' earth, And yet are on 't?

William Shakespeare
Now the melancholy of God protect thee, and the tailor make thy doublet of changable taffata, for thy mind is a very opal. I would have men of such constancy put to sea, that their business might be everything, and their intent everywhere, for that's it, that always makes a good voyage of nothing.
William Shakespeare
Strong reasons make strong actions let us go If you say ay, the king will not say no.
William Shakespeare
Gold were as good as twenty orators.
William Shakespeare
The icy precepts of respect.
William Shakespeare
But like of each thing that in season grows.
William Shakespeare
Never durst poet touch a pen to write Until his ink were temper'd with Love's sighs.
William Shakespeare
What is thy sentence then but speechless death.
William Shakespeare
Neither a borrower nor a lender be, for loan oft loses both itself and friend, and borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
William Shakespeare
You undergo too strict a paradox, Striving to make an ugly deed look fair.
William Shakespeare
