More quotes by William Shakespeare
When workmen strive to do better than well, they do confound their skill in covetousness.
William Shakespeare
The violence of either grief or joy, their own enactures with themselves destroy.
William Shakespeare
He is deformed, crooked, old and sere, Ill-faced, worse bodied, shapeless everywhere Vicious, ungentle, foolish, blunt, unkind Stigmatical in making, worse in mind.
William Shakespeare
Gold were as good as twenty orators.
William Shakespeare
We are advertis'd by our loving friends.
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
There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
William Shakespeare
Pray, do not mock me. I am a very foolish fond old man, Fourscore and upward, not an hour more nor less And, to deal plainly, I fear I am not in my perfect mind.
William Shakespeare
Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.
William Shakespeare
It is my soul that calls upon my name How silver-sweet sound lovers' tongues by night, like softest music to attending ears! -Romeo
William Shakespeare
Do not banish reason for inequality but let your reason serve to make the truth appear where it seems hid, and hide the false seems true.
William Shakespeare
Lay her i' the earth: And from her fair and unpolluted flesh May violets spring! I tell thee, churlish priest, A ministering angel shall my sister be, When thou liest howling. HAMLET. What, the fair Ophelia! QUEEN GERTRUDE. Sweets to the sweet: farewell!
William Shakespeare
What though care killed a cat, thou hast mettle enough in thee to kill care.
William Shakespeare
For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds Lillies that fester smell far worse than weeds.
William Shakespeare
Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.
William Shakespeare
Though she be but little, she is fierce!
William Shakespeare
If I profane with my unworthiest hand This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this: My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
William Shakespeare
But she makes hungry Where she most satisfies.
William Shakespeare
Thou and I are too wise to woo peaceably.
William Shakespeare
Alack, the night comes on, and the bleak winds Do sorely ruffle for many miles about There's scarce a bush.
William Shakespeare
