More quotes by William Shakespeare
The king-becoming graces, As justice, verity, temp'rance, stableness, Bounty, perseverance, mercy, lowliness, Devotion, patience, courage, fortitude, I have no relish of them, but abound In the division of each several crime, Acting in many ways.
William Shakespeare
As you from crimes would pardon'd be, Let your indulgence set me free.
William Shakespeare
The instruments of darkness tell us truths.
William Shakespeare
All his successors gone before him have done 't and all his ancestors that come after him may.
William Shakespeare
And thou, all-shaking thunder, Strike flat the thick rotundity o' the world! Crack nature's moulds, all germens spill at once That makes ingrateful man!
William Shakespeare
He wears his faith but as the fashion of his hat.
William Shakespeare
How soar sweet music is, when time is broke, and no proportion kept!
William Shakespeare
I can hardly forbear hurling things at him.
William Shakespeare
And yet,to say the truth, reason and love keep little company together nowadays.
William Shakespeare
If circumstances lead me, I will find Where truth is hid, though it were hid indeed Within the centre.
William Shakespeare
Look on beauty, and you shall see 'tis purchased by the weight which therein works a miracle in Nature, making them lightest that wear most of it: so are those crisped snaky golden locks which make such wanton gambols with the wind upon supposed fairness, often known to be the dowry of a second head, the skull that bred them in the sepulchre.
William Shakespeare
Let me tell you, Cassius, you yourself are much condemned to have an itching palm.
William Shakespeare
The villany you teach me I shall execute and it shall go hard but I will better the instruction.
William Shakespeare
Let those that play your clowns speak no more than is set down for them.
William Shakespeare
There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
William Shakespeare
Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove. O, no! It is an ever-fixed mark, That looks on tempests and is never shaken. It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
William Shakespeare
There's an old saying that applies to me: you can't lose a game if you don't play the game. (Act 1, scene 4)
William Shakespeare
Now old desire doth in his deathbed lie, And young affection gapes to be his heir That fair for which love groan'd for and would die, With tender Juliet match'd, is now not fair.
William Shakespeare
Great griefs medicine the less.
William Shakespeare
Men's vows are women's traitors
William Shakespeare
