More quotes by William Shakespeare
Pleasure and revenge Have ears more deaf than adders to the voice Of any true decision.
William Shakespeare
In delay there lies no plenty.
William Shakespeare
However wickedness outstrips men, it has no wings to fly from God.
William Shakespeare
Some men never seem to grow old. Always active in thought, always ready to adopt new ideas, they are never chargeable with foggyism. Satisfied, yet ever dissatisfied, settled, yet ever unsettled, they always enjoy the best of what is, are the first to find the best of what will be.
William Shakespeare
For what I will, I will, and there an end.
William Shakespeare
War is no strife To the dark house and the detested wife.
William Shakespeare
I will chide no breather in the world but myself, against whom I know most faults.
William Shakespeare
And fearless minds climb soonest unto crowns.
William Shakespeare
Be not afeard the isle is full of noises.
William Shakespeare
Time and the hour run through the roughest day.
William Shakespeare
Adversity's sweet milk, philosophy.
William Shakespeare
If it be a sin to covet honor, I am the most offending soul.
William Shakespeare
And keep you in the rear of your affection, Out of the shot and danger of desire, The chariest maid is prodigal enough If she unmasks her beauty to the moon.
William Shakespeare
To persist in doing wrong extenuates not the wrong, but makes it much more heavy.
William Shakespeare
Verily, I swear, it is better to be lowly born, and range with humble livers in content, than to be perked up in a glistering grief, and wear a golden sorrow.
William Shakespeare
He uses his folly like a stalking-horse, and under the presentation of that he shoots his wit.
William Shakespeare
God has given you one face, and you make yourself another.
William Shakespeare
For by his face straight shall you know his heart.
William Shakespeare
For the success, Although particular, shall give a scantling Of good or bad unto the general And in such indexes, although small pricks To their subsequent volumes, there is seen The baby figure of the giant mass Of things to come at large.
William Shakespeare
Come, seeling night, Scarf up the tender eye of pitiful day, And with thy bloody and invisible hand Cancel and tear to pieces that great bond Which keeps me pale. Light thickens, and the crow Makes wing to th' rooky wood. Good things of day begin to droop and drowse, While night's black agents to their prey do rouse.
William Shakespeare
