More quotes by William Shakespeare
The head is not more native to the heart.
William Shakespeare
We are such stuff as dreams are made on and our little life is rounded with a sleep.
William Shakespeare
But shall we wear these glories for a day? Or shall they last, and we rejoice in them?
William Shakespeare
For this relief, much thanks
William Shakespeare
The loyalty, well held to fools, does make Our faith mere folly.
William Shakespeare
There's some ill planet reigns: I must be patient till the heavens look With an aspect more favourable.
William Shakespeare
Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow.
William Shakespeare
To gild refined gold, to paint the lily... is wasteful and ridiculous excess
William Shakespeare
A light heart lives long.
William Shakespeare
Good reasons must of force give place to better.
William Shakespeare
Two loves I have, of comfort and despair, Which like two spirits do suggest me still: The better angel is a man right fair, The worser spirit a woman coloured ill.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
With mirth in funeral and with dirge in marriage.
William Shakespeare
What freezings I have felt, what dark days seen, What old December's bareness everywhere!
William Shakespeare
A good sherris-sack hath a twofold operation in it. It ascends me into the brain,... makes it apprehensive, quick, forgetive, full of nimble, fiery, and delectable shapes.
William Shakespeare
Oft expectation fails, and most oft there where most it promises and oft it hits where hope is coldest, and despair most fits.
William Shakespeare
More fools know Jack Fool than Jack Fool knows.
William Shakespeare
The weight of this sad time we must obey, Speak what we feel, not what we ought to say. The oldest hath borne most: we that are young Shall never see so much, nor live so long.
William Shakespeare
What have we here? a man or a fish? dead or alive? A fish: he smells like a fish a very ancient and fishlike smell a kind of not of the newest poor-John. A strange fish!
William Shakespeare
