More quotes by William Shakespeare
If it be a sin to covet honor, I am the most offending soul.
William Shakespeare
As for my wife, I would you had her spirit in such another The third o' th' world is yours, which with a snaffle You may pace easy, but not such a wife.
William Shakespeare
Of all the fair resort of gentlemen That every day with parle encounter me, In thy opinion which is worthiest love?
William Shakespeare
What, can the devil speak true?
William Shakespeare
You are made Rather to wonder at the things you hear Than to work any.
William Shakespeare
I count myself in nothing else so happy as in a soul remembering my good Friends
William Shakespeare
True, I talk of dreams, Which are the children of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy, Which is as thin of substance as the air, And more inconstant than the wind, who woos Even now the frozen bosom of the north, And, being anger'd, puffs away from thence, Turning his side to the dew-dropping south.
William Shakespeare
Ay, that incestuous, that adulterate beast, With witchcraft of his wit, with traitorous gifts- O wicked wit and gifts, that have the power So to seduce!
William Shakespeare
Who buys a minute's mirth to wail a week? Or sell eternity to get a toy? For one grape who will the vine destroy?
William Shakespeare
And it is very much lamented,... That you have no such mirrors as will turn Your hidden worthiness into your eye That you might see your shadow.
William Shakespeare
War is no strife To the dark house and the detested wife.
William Shakespeare
While he was drunk asleep, or in his rage, or in the incestuous pleasure of his bed.
William Shakespeare
Thrice is he arm'd that hath his quarrel just, And he but naked, though lock'd up in steel, Whose conscience with injustice is corrupted.
William Shakespeare
Then was I as a tree whose boughs did bend with fruit but in one night, a storm or robbery, call it what you will, shook down my mellow hangings, nay, my leaves, and left me bare to weather.
William Shakespeare
Patience is sottish, and impatience does become a dog that's mad.
William Shakespeare
Sweet love! Sweet lines! Sweet life! Here is her hand, the agent of her heart Here is her oath for love, her honour's pawn
William Shakespeare
For I have neither wit, nor words, nor worth, Action, nor utterance, nor the power of speech, To stir men's blood: I only speak right on I tell you that which you yourselves do know.
William Shakespeare
Come away, come away, death, And in sad cypres let me be laid Fly away, fly away, breath I am slain by a fair cruel maid.
William Shakespeare
Foul whisperings are abroad
William Shakespeare
The hand that hath made you fair hath made you good. Pity is the virtue of the law, and none but tyrants use it cruelly.
William Shakespeare
