More quotes by William Shakespeare
He that has a house to put's head in has a good head-piece.
William Shakespeare
I cannot tell what you and other men Think of this life but, for my single self, I had as lief not be as live to be In awe of such a thing as I myself.
William Shakespeare
Tis beauty that doth oft make women proud but, God He knows, thy share thereof is small.
William Shakespeare
Take pains. Be perfect.
William Shakespeare
Princes have but their titles for their glories, An outward honor for an inward toil And, for unfelt imaginations, They often feel a world of restless cares.
William Shakespeare
Stars hide your fires let not light see my black and deep desires: The eyes wink at the hand yet let that be which the eye fears, when it is done, to see
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
A woman moved is like a fountain troubled, Muddy, ill-seeming, thick, bereft of beauty.
William Shakespeare
I do love My country's good with a respect more tender, More holy and profound, then mine own life, My dear wife's estimate, her womb increase, And treasure of my loins.
William Shakespeare
If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men’s cottages princes’ palaces. It is a good divine that follows his own instructions: I can easier teach twenty what were good to be done, than be one of the twenty to follow mine own teaching.
William Shakespeare
Give me that man that is not passion's slave, and I will wear him in my heart's core, in my heart of heart, as I do thee.
William Shakespeare
Look to her, Moor, if thou has eyes to see. She has deceived her father, and may thee.
William Shakespeare
We are such stuff as dreams are made on and our little life is rounded with a sleep.
William Shakespeare
Dirty days hath September April June and November From January up to May The rain it raineth every day All the rest have thirty-one Without a blessed gleam of sun And if any of them had two-and-thirty They'd be just as wet and twice as dirty. April hath put a spirit of youth in everything.
William Shakespeare
If she lives till doomsday, she'll burn a week longer than the whole world.
William Shakespeare
A little more than kin, and less than kind.
William Shakespeare
I hold him but a fool that will endanger His body for a girl that loves him not.
William Shakespeare
And teach me how To name the bigger light, and how the less, That burn by day and night.
William Shakespeare
Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth And delves the parallels in beauty's brow.
William Shakespeare
A smile cures the wounding of a frown.
William Shakespeare
