More quotes by William Shakespeare
Beauty is bought by judgement of the eye.
William Shakespeare
The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together.
William Shakespeare
O fortune, fortune! all men call thee fickle.
William Shakespeare
When Fortune means to men most good, She looks upon them with a threatening eye.
William Shakespeare
She says I am not fair, that I lack manners She calls me proud, and that she could not love me, Were man as rare as Phoenix.
William Shakespeare
Make me a willow cabin at your gate, And call upon my soul within the house Write loyal cantons of contemned love And sing them loud even in the dead of night.
William Shakespeare
Full oft we see Cold wisdom waiting on superfluous folly.
William Shakespeare
Lady, you know no rules of charity, Which renders good for bad, blessings for curses.

William Shakespeare
Yet do I fear thy nature It is too full o' the milk of human kindness.
William Shakespeare
So holy and so perfect is my love, And I in such a poverty of grace, That I shall think it a most plenteous crop To glean the broken ears after the man That the main harvest reaps.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Could beauty, my lord, have better commerce than with honesty?
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Let those that play your clowns speak no more than is set down for them.
William Shakespeare
Look on beauty, and you shall see 'tis purchased by the weight which therein works a miracle in Nature, making them lightest that wear most of it: so are those crisped snaky golden locks which make such wanton gambols with the wind upon supposed fairness, often known to be the dowry of a second head, the skull that bred them in the sepulchre.
William Shakespeare
Be checked for silence, But never taxed for speech.
William Shakespeare
Tax not so bad a voice to slander music any more than once.
William Shakespeare
I have set my life upon a cast, And I will stand the hazard of the die.
William Shakespeare
