Youth is full of sport, age's breath is short youth is nimble, age is lame Youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold Youth is wild, and age is tame.

Image
Bear with my weakness. My old brain is troubled. Be not disturbed with my infirmity.
William Shakespeare
Image
Grace and remembrance be to you both.
William Shakespeare
Image
If one good deed in all my life I did, I do repent it from my very soul.
William Shakespeare
Image
I have almost forgotten the taste of fears: The time has been, my senses would have cool’d to hear a night-shriek and my fell of hair would at a dismal treatise rouse and stir as life were in’t: I have supt full with horrors Direness, familiar to my slaughterous thoughts, cannot once start me.
William Shakespeare
Image
If people knew how much I hated them, they'd love me for holding it in.
William Shakespeare
Image
Never he will not: Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale Her infinite variety: other women cloy The appetites they feed: but she makes hungry Where most she satisfies.
William Shakespeare
Image
Still constant is a wondrous excellence.
William Shakespeare
Image
Ever note, Lucilius, When love begins to sicken and decay It useth an enforced ceremony. There are no tricks in plain and simple faith But hollow men, like horses hot at hand, Make gallant show and promise of their mettle But when they should endure the bloody spur, They fall their crests, and like deceitful jades Sink in the trial.
William Shakespeare
Image
Good morrow, fair ones pray you, if you know, Where in the purlieus of this forest stands A sheep-cote fenc'd about with olive trees?
William Shakespeare
Image
I will be master of what is mine own: She is my goods, my chattels she is my house, My household stuff, my field, my barn, My horse, my ox, my ass, my any thing.
William Shakespeare
Image
Look on beauty, and you shall see 'tis purchased by the weight.
William Shakespeare
Image
'Sblood, you starveling, you elf-skin, you dried neat's tongue, you bull's pizzle, you stock-fish! O for breath to utter what is like thee! you tailor's-yard, you sheath, you bowcase you vile standing-tuck!
William Shakespeare
Image
Yon grey lines That fret the clouds are messengers of day.
William Shakespeare
Image
They were devils incarnate.
William Shakespeare
Image
The poorest service is repaid with thanks.
William Shakespeare
Image
What stronger breastplate than a heart untainted! Thrice is he arm'd, that hath his quarrel just.
William Shakespeare
Image
No longer mourn for me when I am dead Than you shall hear the surly sullen bell Give warning to the world that I am fled From this vile world, with vilest worms to dwell.
William Shakespeare
Image
As in a theatre, the eyes of men, after a well-graced actor leaves the stage, are idly bent on him that enters next.
William Shakespeare
Image
Love yourself and in that love not unconsidered leave your honor.
William Shakespeare
Image
So they loved as love in twain Had the essence but in one Two distinct, divisions none.
William Shakespeare
