More quotes by William Shakespeare
The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose. An evil soul producing holy witness Is like a villain with a smiling cheek, A goodly apple rotten at the heart. O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!
William Shakespeare
At once, good night- Stand not upon the order of your going, But go at once.
William Shakespeare
I think the King is but a man as I am: the violet smells to him as it doth to me.
William Shakespeare
Besides, our nearness to the King in love Is near the hate of those love not the King.
William Shakespeare
Base is the slave that pays.
William Shakespeare
What, all so soon asleep! I wish mine eyes Would, with themselves, shut up my thoughts.
William Shakespeare
On your eyelids crown the god of sleep, Charming your blood with pleasing heaviness, Making such difference 'twixt wake and sleep As is the difference betwixt day and night The hour before the heavenly-harness'd team Begins his golden progress in the east.
William Shakespeare
I am bewitched with the rogue's company. If the rascal have not given me medicines to make me love him, I'll be hanged.
William Shakespeare
Out, damned spot! out, I say! One: two: why, then 'tis time to do't. Hell is murky!
William Shakespeare
While we lie tumbling in the hay.
William Shakespeare
There is a history in all men's lives, Figuring the nature of the times deceased, The which observed, a man may prophesy, With a near aim, of the main chance of things As yet not come to life, which in their seeds And weak beginnings lie intreasured.
William Shakespeare
What a terrible era in which idiots govern the blind.
William Shakespeare
Our very eyes Are sometimes, like our judgments, blind.
William Shakespeare
Words without thoughts never to heaven go.
William Shakespeare
Opinion's but a fool, that makes us scan The outward habit by the inward man.
William Shakespeare
Let every eye negotiate for itself and trust no agent.
William Shakespeare
For honesty coupled to beauty, is to have honey a sauce to sugar.
William Shakespeare
He says, he loves my daughter I think so too for never gaz'd the moon Upon the water, as he'll stand and read, As 'twere, my daughter's eyes: and, to be plain, I think, there is not half a kiss to choose, Who loves another best.
William Shakespeare
Patience is sottish, and impatience does become a dog that's mad.
William Shakespeare
Love thrives not in the heart that shadows dreadeth
William Shakespeare
