More quotes by William Shakespeare
We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
William Shakespeare
And where two raging fires meet together, they do consume the thing that feeds their fury.
William Shakespeare
Art thou afeard To be the same in thine own act and valour As thou art in desire? Wouldst thou have that Which thou esteem'st the ornament of life, And live a coward in thine own esteem, Letting 'I dare not' wait upon 'I would,' Like the poor cat i' the adage?
William Shakespeare
The quality of nothing hath not such need to hide itself
William Shakespeare
The blood of youth burns not with such excess as gravity's revolt to wantonness.
William Shakespeare
Poor and content, is rich and rich enough But riches, fineless, is as poor as winter, To him that ever fears he shall be poor.
William Shakespeare
That, sir, which serves and seeks for gain, And follows but for form, Will pack, when it begins to rain, And leave thee in a storm.
William Shakespeare
Virtue is chok'd with foul ambition
William Shakespeare
I can easier teach twenty what were good to be done, than be one of the twenty to follow mine own teaching.
William Shakespeare
Wise men ne'er sit and wail their woes, but presently prevent the ways to wail.
William Shakespeare
Verily, I swear, it is better to be lowly born, and range with humble livers in content, than to be perked up in a glistering grief, and wear a golden sorrow.
William Shakespeare
Those, that with haste will make a mighty fire, Begin it with weak straws.
William Shakespeare
My nature is subdued to what it works in, like the dyer's hand.
William Shakespeare
Should the poor be flattered? No let the candied tongue lick absurd pomp, and crook the pregnant hinges of the knee where thrift may follow fawning.
William Shakespeare
Daffodils, That come before the swallow dares, and take The winds of March with beauty.
William Shakespeare
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing end them?
William Shakespeare
Wishers were ever fools.
William Shakespeare
By-and-by is easily said.
William Shakespeare
My grief lies all within, And these external manners of lament Are merely shadows to the unseen grief That swells with silence in the tortured soul.
William Shakespeare
Men are April when they woo, December when they wed.
William Shakespeare
