More quotes by William Shakespeare
For my part, I may speak it to my shame, I have a truant been to chivalry And so I hear he doth account me too.
William Shakespeare
I feel it gone, yet know not when it left.
William Shakespeare
Unless hours were cups of sack, and minutes capons, and clocks the tongues of bawds, and dials the signs of leaping-houses, and the blessed sun himself a fair hot wench in flame-colored taffeta, I see no reason why thou shouldst be so superfluous to demand the time of the day.
William Shakespeare
Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty.
William Shakespeare
A woman impudent and mannish grown Is not more loath'd than an effeminate man.
William Shakespeare
I shall laugh myself to death at this puppy-headed monster!
William Shakespeare
Is it possible he should know what he is, and be that he is?
William Shakespeare
Wine loved I deeply, dice dearly.
William Shakespeare
What made me love thee? let that persuade thee, there's something extraordinary in thee
William Shakespeare
Angels are bright still, though the brightest fell. Though all things foul would wear the brows of grace, Yet Grace must still look so.
William Shakespeare
Here feel we but the penalty of Adam, The seasons' difference, as the icy fang And churlish chiding of the winter's wind, Which, when it bites and blows upon my body, Even till I shrink with cold, I smile.
William Shakespeare
When the age is in, the wit is out
William Shakespeare
Affection, mistress of passion, sways it to the mood of what it likes or loathes.
William Shakespeare
But indeed an old religious uncle of mine taught me to speak, who was in his youth an inland man one that knew courtship too well, for there he fell in love. I have heard him read many lectures against it and I thank God I am not a woman, to be touched with so many giddy offenses as he hath generally taxed their whole sex withal.
William Shakespeare
This is the very ecstasy of love.
William Shakespeare
There's an old saying that applies to me: you can't lose a game if you don't play the game. (Act 1, scene 4)
William Shakespeare
Were it good To set the exact wealth of all our states All at one cast? to set so rich a main On the nice hazard of one doubtful hour? It were not good.
William Shakespeare
Master, go on, and I will follow thee To the last gasp with truth and loyalty.
William Shakespeare
Of all knowledge the wise and good seek most to know themselves.
William Shakespeare
That is the way to lay the city flat, To bring the roof to the foundation, And bury all, which yet distinctly ranges, In heaps and piles of ruin.
William Shakespeare
