More quotes by William Shakespeare
I have sounded the very base-string of humility.
William Shakespeare
What our contempts do often hurl from us, We wish it ours again.
William Shakespeare
Every why hath a wherefore.
William Shakespeare
All of Creation’s a farce. Man was born as a joke. In his head his reason is buffeted Like wind-blown smoke. Life is a game. Everyone ridicules everyone else. But he who has the last laugh Laughs longest.
William Shakespeare
Woe, destruction, ruin, and decay the worst is death and death will have his day.
William Shakespeare
A lion among ladies is a most dreadful thing.
William Shakespeare
But that the dread of something after death, The undiscover'd country from whose bourn No traveller returns, puzzles the will And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of?
William Shakespeare
I am not prone to weeping as our sex commonly are the want of which vain dew perchance shall dry your pities but I have that honorable grief lodged here which burns worse than tears drown.
William Shakespeare
God mark thee to His grace! Thou was the prettiest babe that e'er I nursed. And might I live to see thee married once, I have my wish.
William Shakespeare
I think the devil will not have me damned, lest the oil that's in me should set hell on fire.
William Shakespeare
Men judge by the complexion of the sky The state and inclination of the day.
William Shakespeare
O constancy, be strong upon my side, Set a huge mountain 'tween my heart and tongue! I have a man's mind, but a woman's might.
William Shakespeare
A light wife doth make a heavy husband.
William Shakespeare
I durst not laugh for fear of opening my lips and receiving the bad air.
William Shakespeare
Wisdom and fortune combating together, If that the former dare but what it can, No chance may shake it.
William Shakespeare
He that is proud eats up himself: pride is his own glass, his own trumpet, his own chronicle.
William Shakespeare
In right and service to their noble country.
William Shakespeare
If one good deed in all my life I did, I do repent it from my very soul.
William Shakespeare
I'll privily away I love the people, But do not like to stage me to their eyes Though it do well, I do not relish well Their loud applause and aves vehement, Nor do I think the man of safe discretion That does not affect it.
William Shakespeare
Leave us to our free election.
