More quotes by William Shakespeare
I will not be sworn but love may transform me to an oyster
William Shakespeare
Lovers ever run before the clock
William Shakespeare
All things that we ordained festival Turn from their office to black funeral-- Our instruments to melancholy bells, Our wedding cheer to a sad burial feast Our solemn hymns to sullen dirges change Our bridal flowers serve for a buried corse And all things change them to the contrary.
William Shakespeare
I think the King is but a man as I am: the violet smells to him as it doth to me.
William Shakespeare
If there were reason for these miseries, then into limits could I bind my woes. If the winds rages, doth not the sea wax mad, threat'ning the welkin with its big-swoll'n face? And wilt though have a reason for this coil? I am the sea. Hark how her sighs doth blow. She is the weeping welkin, I the earth.
William Shakespeare
Pause awhile, And let my counsel sway you.
William Shakespeare
So wise so young, they say, do never live long.
William Shakespeare
Ten masts make not the altitude Which thou hast perpendicularly fell. Thy life's a miracle.
William Shakespeare
Besides, they are our outward consciences, And preachers to us all, admonishing That we should drew us fairly for our end.
William Shakespeare
To business that we love we rise betime, and go to't with delight.
William Shakespeare
Thy head is as full of quarrels as an egg is full of meat, and yet thy head hath been beaten as addle as an egg for quarrelling.
William Shakespeare
He that commends me to mine own content Commends me to the thing I cannot get. I to the world am like a drop of water That in the ocean seeks another drop, Who, falling there to find his fellow forth, Unseen, inquisitive, confounds himself: So I, to find a mother and a brother, In quest of them, unhappy, lose myself.
William Shakespeare
I cannot draw a cart, nor eat dried oats If it be man's work, I'll do't.
William Shakespeare
And in the morn and liquid dew of youth, Contagious blastments are are most imminent.
William Shakespeare
Love sees with the heart and not with mind.
William Shakespeare
Tis now the very witching time of night, when churchyards yawn and hell itself breathes out Contagion to this world.
William Shakespeare
So shaken as we are, so wan with care, Find we a time for frighted peace to pant And breathe short-winded accents of new broils To be commenced in stronds afar remote.
William Shakespeare
I go, I go, look how I go, swifter than an arrow from a bow
William Shakespeare
As good luck would have it.
William Shakespeare
Love is a spirit all compact of fire.
William Shakespeare
