More quotes by William Shakespeare
A good sherris-sack hath a twofold operation in it. It ascends me into the brain,... makes it apprehensive, quick, forgetive, full of nimble, fiery, and delectable shapes.
William Shakespeare
Do not swear by the moon, for she changes constantly. Then your love would also change.
William Shakespeare
You, and your lady, Take from my heart all thankfulness!
William Shakespeare
Were it good To set the exact wealth of all our states All at one cast? to set so rich a main On the nice hazard of one doubtful hour? It were not good.
William Shakespeare
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep To sleep, perchance to dream—For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause, there's the respect, That makes calamity of so long life
William Shakespeare
In time the savage bull doth bear the yoke.
William Shakespeare
Not a whit, we defy augury: there's a special providence in the fall of a sparrow. If it be now, 'tis not to come if it be not to come, it will be now if it be not now, yet it will come: the readiness is all.
William Shakespeare
When truth kills truth, O devilish holy fray!
William Shakespeare
Love does not see with the eyes, but with the soul.
William Shakespeare
Opinion's but a fool, that makes us scan The outward habit by the inward man.
William Shakespeare
Give to a gracious message An host of tongues, but let ill tidings tell Themselves when they be felt.
William Shakespeare
Good fortune then! To make me blest or cursed'st among men.
William Shakespeare
O, I do not like that paying back, 'tis a double labor.
William Shakespeare
Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore, So do our minutes hasten to their end Each changing place with that which goes before, In sequent toil all forwards do contend.
William Shakespeare
O most delicate fiend! Who is't can read a woman? Is there more?
William Shakespeare
It is silliness to live when to live is torment.
William Shakespeare
The very firstlings of my heart shall be The firstlings of my hand.
William Shakespeare
For as a surfeit of the sweetest things The deepest loathing to the stomach brings, Or as tie heresies that men do leave Are hated most of those they did deceive, So thou, my surfeit and my heresy, Of all be hated, but the most of me!
William Shakespeare
I should think this a gull, but that the white-bearded fellow speaks it knavery cannot, sure, hide himself in such reverence.
William Shakespeare
What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a god.
William Shakespeare
