More quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Literature is a comprehensive essence of the intellectual life of a nation.
William Shakespeare
Perseverance, my dear Lord. Keeps honour bright.
William Shakespeare
Oft have I heard that grief softens the mind And makes it fearful and degenerate.
William Shakespeare
They are in the very wrath of love, and they will go together. Clubs cannot part them
William Shakespeare
To be in love- where scorn is bought with groans, Coy looks with heart-sore sighs, one fading moment's mirth With twenty watchful, weary, tedious nights If haply won, perhaps a hapless gain If lost, why then a grievous labour won However, but a folly bought with wit, Or else a wit by folly vanquished.
William Shakespeare
Manhood is melted into courtesies, valor into compliment, and men are only turned into tongue, and trim ones, too.
William Shakespeare
Is it not strange that desire should so many years outlive performance?
William Shakespeare
So will I turn her virtue into pitch, And out of her own goodness make the net That shall enmesh them all.
William Shakespeare
I do begin to have bloody thoughts.
William Shakespeare
To lapse in fulness Is sorer than to lie for need, and falsehood Is worse in kings than beggars.
William Shakespeare
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips, Straining upon the start. The game's afoot Follow your spirit: and upon this charge, Cry — God for Harry! England and Saint George!
William Shakespeare
Nothing routs us but the villainy of our fears.
William Shakespeare
That truth should be silent I had almost forgot. (Enobarbus)
William Shakespeare
I hold him but a fool that will endanger His body for a girl that loves him not.
William Shakespeare
Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale Her infinite variety.
William Shakespeare
Those friends thou hast, and their adoption tried, Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel But do not dull thy palm with entertainment Of each new-hatch'd, unfledg'd comrade.
William Shakespeare
Light boats sail swift, though greater hulks draw deep.
William Shakespeare
Would it not grieve a woman to be over-mastered by a piece of valiant dust? to make an account of her life to a clod of wayward marle?
William Shakespeare
Things done well and with a care, exempt themselves from fear.
William Shakespeare
