More quotes by William Shakespeare
Base is the slave that pays.
William Shakespeare
Two starving men cannot be twice as hungry as one but two rascals can be ten times as vicious as one.
William Shakespeare
Old Time the clock-setter.
William Shakespeare
Foul deeds will rise, Though all the earth o'erwhelm them, to men's eyes.
William Shakespeare
So we grew together like to a double cherry, seeming parted, but yet an union in partition, two lovely berries molded on one stem.
William Shakespeare
Things without all remedy should be without regard: what's done is done.
William Shakespeare
And writers say, as the most forward bud Is eaten by the canker ere it blow, Even so by love the young and tender wit Is turn'd to folly, blasting in the bud, Losing his verdure even in the prime, And all the fair effects of future hopes.
William Shakespeare
Words pay no debts, give her deeds.
William Shakespeare
He that is proud eats up himself: pride is his own glass, his own trumpet, his own chronicle.
William Shakespeare
Friendship is constant in all other things Save in the office and affairs of love. Therefore all hearts in love use their own tongues. Let every eye negotiate for itself, And trust no agent for beauty is a witch Against whose charms faith melteth into blood.
William Shakespeare
Ha. Against my will I am sent to bid you come into dinner. There's a double meaning in that. -Benedick (Much Ado)
William Shakespeare
Like the lily That once was mistress of the field and flourished, I'll hang my head and perish.
William Shakespeare
Well, God's above all and there be souls must be saved, and there be souls must not be saved.
William Shakespeare
The error of our eye directs our mind. What error leads must err.
William Shakespeare
Tears harden lust, though marble wear with raining.
William Shakespeare
Sometimes we are devils to ourselves When we will tempt the frailty of our powers, Presuming on their changeful potency.
William Shakespeare
And how his audit stands who knows, save Heaven?
William Shakespeare
Done to death by slanderous tongue
William Shakespeare
Sweet love! Sweet lines! Sweet life! Here is her hand, the agent of her heart Here is her oath for love, her honour's pawn
William Shakespeare
What win I, if I gain the thing I seek? A dream, a breath, a froth of fleeting joy. Who buys a minute's mirth to wail a week? Or sells eternity to get a toy? For one sweet grape who will the vine destroy? Or what fond beggar, but to touch the crown, Would with the sceptre straight be strucken down?
William Shakespeare
