More quotes by William Shakespeare
I had rather be a kitten and cry mew Than one of these same metre ballet-mongers.
William Shakespeare
Present mirth hath present laughter. What's to come is still unsure.
William Shakespeare
Her virtues, graced with external gifts, Do breed love's settled passions in my heart And like as rigour of tempestuous gusts Provokes the mightiest hulk against the tide, So am I driven by breath of her renown Either to suffer shipwreck or arrive Where I may have fruition of her love.
William Shakespeare
If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men’s cottages princes’ palaces. It is a good divine that follows his own instructions: I can easier teach twenty what were good to be done, than be one of the twenty to follow mine own teaching.
William Shakespeare
What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a god.
William Shakespeare
The sense of death is most in apprehension.
William Shakespeare
And oftentimes excusing of a fault doth make the fault the worse by the excuse.
William Shakespeare
Gold were as good as twenty orators.
William Shakespeare
If wishes would prevail with me, my purpose should not fail with me.
William Shakespeare
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing end them?
William Shakespeare
I have drunk and seen the spider.
William Shakespeare
Is this a dagger which I see before me, The handle toward my hand?
William Shakespeare
This is the very ecstasy of love, whose violent property ordoes itself and leads the will to desperate undertakings.
William Shakespeare
Base men being in love have then a nobility in their natures more than is native to them.
William Shakespeare
Like a barber's chair that fits all buttocks.
William Shakespeare
Chewing the food of sweet and bitter fancy.
William Shakespeare
Love, whose month is ever May, Spied a blossom passing fair, Playing in the wanton air: Through the velvet leaves the wind, All unseen can passage find That the lover, sick to death, Wish'd himself the heaven's breath.
William Shakespeare
A man loves the meat in his youth that he cannot endure in his age.
William Shakespeare
To set a gloss on faint deeds, hollow welcomes, Recanting goodness, sorry ere 'tis shown But where there is true friendship, there needs none.
William Shakespeare
How much better is it to weep at joy than to joy at weeping?
William Shakespeare
