William Shakespeare
He that filches from me my good name robs me of that which enriches him and makes me poor indeed.
William Shakespeare
Look how the world's poor people are amazed at apparitions, signs and prodigies!
William Shakespeare
Here comes Monseiur Le Beau. Rosalind: With his mouth full of news. Celia: Which he will put on us, as pigeons feed their young. Rosalind: Then shall we be news-crammed. Celia: All the better we shall be the more marketable.
William Shakespeare
To be slow in words is a woman's only virtue.
William Shakespeare
JAQUES: Rosalind is your love's name? ORLANDO: Yes, just. JAQUES: I do not like her name. ORLANDO: There was no thought of pleasing you when she was christened.
William Shakespeare
A man should be what he seems.
William Shakespeare
There's little of the melancholy element in her, my lord: she is never sad but when she sleeps and not ever sad then for I have heard my daughter say, she hath often dreamt of unhappiness, and waked herself with laughing.
William Shakespeare
