More quotes by William Shakespeare
He is the most wretched of men who has never felt adversity.
William Shakespeare
If thou dost seek to have what thou dost hide, By self-example mayst thou be denied.
William Shakespeare
I will make thee think thy swan a crow.
William Shakespeare
Hath Romeo slain himself? Say thou but ay, And that bare vowel ay shall poison more Than the death-darting eye of cockatrice. I am not I,if there be such an ay, Or those eyes shut,that make thee answer ay: If he be slain say ay,or if not,no: Brief sounds,determine of my weal or woe.
William Shakespeare
Loathsome canker lives in sweetest bud.
William Shakespeare
Not from the stars do I my judgement pluck, And yet methinks I have astronomy. But not to tell of good or evil luck, Of plagues, of dearths, or season's quality Nor can I fortune to brief minutes tell ... Or say with princes if it shall go well.
William Shakespeare
Time is the nurse and breeder of all good.
William Shakespeare
A fusty nut with no kernel.
William Shakespeare
Tis in ourselves that we are thus or thus. Our bodies are our gardens to the which our wills are gardeners.
William Shakespeare
Wisdom and goodness to the vile seem vile Filths savour but themselves.
William Shakespeare
I do I know not what, and fear to find Mine eye too great a flatterer for my mind. Fate, show thy force. Ourselves we do not owe. What is decreed must be and be this so.
William Shakespeare
A woman is a dish for the gods, if the devil dress her not.
William Shakespeare
He capers, he dances, he has eyes of youth, he writes verses, he speaks holiday, he smells April and May.
William Shakespeare
He was ever precise in promise-keeping.
William Shakespeare
I had rather be a Kitten, and cry mew, Than one of these same Meeter Ballad-mongers: I had rather heare a Brazen Candlestick turn'd, Or a dry Wheele grate on the Axle-tree, And that would set my teeth nothing an edge, Nothing so much, as mincing Poetrie.
William Shakespeare
Glory grows guilty of detested crimes.
William Shakespeare
If thou couldst, doctor, cast The water of my land, find her disease, And purge it to a sound and pristine health, I would applaud thee to the very echo, That should applaud you again.
William Shakespeare
Happy thou art not for what thou hast not, still thou strivest to get and what thou hast, forgettest.
William Shakespeare
Should all despair That have revolted wives, the tenth of mankind Would hang themselves.
William Shakespeare
For this relief, much thanks
William Shakespeare
