Let's take the instant by the forward top For we are old, and on our quick'st decrees The inaudible and noiseless foot of Time Steals ere we can effect them.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
If yon bethink yourself of any crime Unreconcil'd as yet to heaven and grace, Solicit for it straight.
William Shakespeare
My hands are of your color, but I shame to wear a heart so white.
William Shakespeare
I wish you all the joy that you can wish.
William Shakespeare
Literature is a comprehensive essence of the intellectual life of a nation.
William Shakespeare
Her virtues, graced with external gifts, Do breed love's settled passions in my heart And like as rigour of tempestuous gusts Provokes the mightiest hulk against the tide, So am I driven by breath of her renown Either to suffer shipwreck or arrive Where I may have fruition of her love.
William Shakespeare
Look, the world's comforter, with weary gait, His day's hot task hath ended in the west: The owl, night's herald, shrieks-'tis very late The sheep are gone to fold, birds to their nest And coal-black clouds, that shadow heaven's light, Do summon us to part, and bid good night.
William Shakespeare
If thou dost love, proclaim it faithfully.
William Shakespeare
Twas a clever quibble. Here, a garment for it.
William Shakespeare
Never play with the feelings of others, because you may win the game but the risk is that you will surely lose the person for life time
William Shakespeare
Thou ever young, fresh, lov'd, and delicate wooer, whose blush doth thaw the consecrated snow
William Shakespeare
The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
William Shakespeare
Care keeps his watch in every old man’s eye, And where care lodges, sleep will never lie.
William Shakespeare
When a man's verses cannot be understood, nor a man's good wit seconded with the forward child understanding, it strikes a man more dead than a great reckoning in a little room. Truly, I would the gods had made thee poetical.
William Shakespeare
Behold the threaden sails, Borne with the invisible and creeping wind, Draw the huge bottoms through the furrow'd sea, Breasting the lofty surge
William Shakespeare
Silence is the perfect herald of joy.
William Shakespeare
It's easy for someone to joke about scars if they've never been cut.
William Shakespeare
What, my dear Lady Disdain! are you yet living? Beatrice: Is it possible disdain should die while she hath such meet food to feed it as Signior Benedick?
William Shakespeare
Lend less than you owe.
William Shakespeare
Gold were as good as twenty orators.
William Shakespeare
I am the Prince of Wales and think not, Percy, To share with me in glory any more: Two stars keep not their motion in one sphere.
William Shakespeare
