More quotes by William Shakespeare
The eye sees all, but the mind shows us what we want to see.
William Shakespeare
Men so noble, However faulty, yet should find respect For what they have been: 'tis a cruelty To load a falling man.
William Shakespeare
Because I cannot flatter and look fair, Smile in men's faces, smooth, deceive, and cog, Duck with French nods and apish courtesy, I must be held a rancorous enemy.
William Shakespeare
Had I but served my God with half the zeal I served my king, he would not in mine age have left me naked to mine enemies.
William Shakespeare
This most excellent canopy, the air, look you, this brave o-erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire.
William Shakespeare
To fear the foe, since fear oppresseth strength, Gives, in your weakness, strength unto your foe, And so your follies fight against yourself. Fear, and be slain--so worse can come to fight And fight and die is death destroying death, Where fearing dying pays death servile breath.
William Shakespeare
That god forbid, that made me first your slave, I should in thought control your times of pleasure, Or at your hand th' account of hours to crave, Being your vassal bound to stay your leisure.
William Shakespeare
God send everyone their heart's desire!
William Shakespeare
For my part, if a lie may do thee grace, I'll gild it with the happiest terms I have.
William Shakespeare
Presume not that I am the thing I was.
William Shakespeare
'By heaven, that thou art fair, is most infallible true, that thou art beauteous truth itself, that thou art lovely. More fairer than fair, beautiful than beauteous, truer than truth itself, have commiseration on thy heroical vassal.
William Shakespeare
Done to death by slanderous tongue
William Shakespeare
The time of universal peace is near. Prove this a prosp'rous day, the three-nooked world Shall bear the olive freely.
William Shakespeare
Love reasons without reason.
William Shakespeare
Come now, what masques, what dances shall we have To wear away this long age of three hours Between our after-supper and bedtime?
William Shakespeare
A whoreson jackanapes must take me up for swearing as if I borrowed mine oaths of him and might not spend them at my pleasure. When a gentleman is disposed to swear, it is not for any standers-by to curtail his oaths, ha?
William Shakespeare
Women being the weaker vessels, are ever thrust to the walls.
William Shakespeare
The king hath note of all that they intend, by interception which they dream not of.
William Shakespeare
We must be gentle now we are gentlemen.
William Shakespeare
The means that heaven yields must be embraced, and not neglected else, if heaven would, and we will not heaven's offer, we refuse the proffered means of succor and redress.
William Shakespeare
