More quotes by William Shakespeare
Men have died from time to time, and worms have eaten them, but not for love.
William Shakespeare
Reputation, reputation, reputation! O, I ha' lost my reputation, I ha' lost the immortal part of myself, and what remains is bestial!
William Shakespeare
Tis a happy thing To be the father unto many sons.
William Shakespeare
Still constant is a wondrous excellence.
William Shakespeare
I do desire we may be better strangers.
William Shakespeare
Be just, and fear not. Let all the ends thou aim'st at be thy country's, Thy God's and truth's.
William Shakespeare
Finish, good lady the bright day is done, And we are for the Dark.
William Shakespeare
Tis not a year or two shows us a man: They are all but stomachs, and we all but food They eat us hungerly, and when they are full They belch us.
William Shakespeare
We wound our modesty and make foul the clearness of our deservings, when of ourselves we publish them.
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
Come not within the measure of my wrath.
William Shakespeare
Our enemies are our outward consciences.
William Shakespeare
This fell sergeant, Death, Is strict in his arrest.
William Shakespeare
I had rather be a kitten and cry mew Than one of these same metre ballet-mongers.
William Shakespeare
And, looking on it with lack-lustre eye, Says very wisely, It is ten o'clock: Thus we may see, quoth he, how the world wags.
William Shakespeare
My free drift Halts not particularly, but moves itself In a wide sea of wax no levelled malice Infects one comma in the course I hold, But flies an eagle flight, bold and forth on, Leaving no tract behind.
William Shakespeare
So holy writ in babes hath judgment shown When judges have been babes great floods have flown From simple sources, and great seas have dried When miracles have by the greatest been denied.
William Shakespeare
Rest you fair, good signior Your worship was the last man in our mouths.
William Shakespeare
There are a sort of men, whose visages Do cream and mantle, like a standing pond And do a willful stillness entertain, With purpose to be dressed in an opinion Of wisdom, gravity profound conceit As who should say, I am sir Oracle, And when I ope my lips, let no dog bark!
William Shakespeare
Mercy is not itself, that oft looks so Pardon is still the nurse of second woe.
William Shakespeare
