More quotes by William Shakespeare
I, thus neglecting worldly ends, all dedicated To closeness and the bettering of my mind.
William Shakespeare
I would give all of my fame for a pot of ale and safety.
William Shakespeare
Women being the weaker vessels, are ever thrust to the walls.
William Shakespeare
I am not only witty in myself, but the cause that wit is in other men.
William Shakespeare
That time of year thou mayst in me behold When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang Upon those boughs which shake against the cold, Bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds sang. In me thou seest the twilight of such day, As after sunset fadeth in the west, Which by-and-by black night doth take away.
William Shakespeare
My father compounded with my mother under the Dragon's tail, and my nativity was under Ursa Major, so that it follows, I am roughand lecherous. Tut, I should have been that I am, had the maidenliest star in the firmament twinkled on my bastardizing.
William Shakespeare
Be like you thought our love would last too long, if it were chain'd together
William Shakespeare
Foolery, sir, does walk about the orb like the sun it shines everywhere.
William Shakespeare
How soar sweet music is, when time is broke, and no proportion kept!
William Shakespeare
thy wit is a very bitter sweeting it is a most sharp sauce.
William Shakespeare
Though inclination be as sharp as will, My stronger guilt defeats my strong intent, And, like a man to double business bound, I stand in pause where I shall first begin, And both neglect.
William Shakespeare
I have ventured, Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders, This many summers in a sea of glory, But far beyond my depth. My high-blown pride At length broke under me, and now has left me, Weary and old with service, to the mercy Of a rude stream that must for ever hide me.
William Shakespeare
Obey thy parents, keep thy word justly swear not commit not with man's sworn spouse set not thy sweet heart on proud array. * * * Keep thy foot out of brothels, thy pen from lenders' books.
William Shakespeare
Who is it that can tell me who I am?
William Shakespeare
wert thou as far As that vast shore washed with the farthest sea, I would adventure for such merchandise.
William Shakespeare
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more Or close the wall up with our English dead! In peace there's nothing so becomes a man As modest stillness and humility: But when the blast of war blows in our ears, Then imitate the action of the tiger.
William Shakespeare
Prophet may you be! If I be false, or swerve a hair from truth, when time is old and hath forgot itself, when waterdrops have worn the stones of Troy, and blind oblivion swallowed cities up, and mighty states characterless are grated to dusty nothing, yet let memory, from false to false, among false maids in love, upbraid my falsehood!
William Shakespeare
Let men say we be men of good government, being governed, as the sea is, by our noble and chaste mistress the moon, under whose countenance we steal.
William Shakespeare
True, I talk of dreams, Which are the children of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy.
William Shakespeare
Was ever woman in this humour wooed? Was ever woman in this humour won?
William Shakespeare
