More quotes by William Shakespeare
What a terrible era in which idiots govern the blind.
William Shakespeare
Out of her favour, where I am in love.
William Shakespeare
Fight, gentlemen of England! fight, bold yeomen! Draw, archers, draw your arrows to the head! Spur your proud horses hard, and ride in blood Amaze the welkin with your broken staves!
William Shakespeare
If you prick us do we not bleed? If you tickle us do we not laugh? If you poison us do we not die? And if you wrong us shall we not revenge?
William Shakespeare
O momentary grace of mortal men, Which we more hunt for than the grace of God!
William Shakespeare
For which of my bad parts didst thou first fall in love with me?
William Shakespeare
O God of battles! steel my soldiers’ hearts. Possess them not with fear.
William Shakespeare
I am a kind of burr I shall stick.
William Shakespeare
[S]ince brevity is the soul of wit, And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes, I will be brief.
William Shakespeare
Time ... thou ceaseless lackey to eternity.
William Shakespeare
Merrily, merrily shall I live now, Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
William Shakespeare
Love is heavy and light, bright and dark, hot and cold, sick and healthy, asleep and awake- its everything except what it is! (Act 1, scene 1)
William Shakespeare
The heart hath treble wrong When it is barr'd the aidance of the tongue.
William Shakespeare
You cannot, sir, take from me any thing that I will more willingly part withal: except my life, except my life, except my life.
William Shakespeare
Mine eyes are full of tears, my heart of grief.
William Shakespeare
His forward voice now is to speak well of his friend. His backward voice is to utter foul speeches and to detract.
William Shakespeare
The readiness is all.
William Shakespeare
Were beauty under twenty locks kept fast, yet love breaks through and picks them all at last.
William Shakespeare
I sat upon a promontory, And heard a mermaid, on a dolphin's back, Uttering such dulcet and harmonious breath, That the rude sea grew civil at her song And certain stars shot madly from their spheres, To hear the sea-maid's music.
William Shakespeare
Such antics do not amount to a man.
William Shakespeare
