More quotes by William Shakespeare
To offend and judge are distinct offices, And of opposed natures.
William Shakespeare
And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.
William Shakespeare
Courage mounteth with occasion.
William Shakespeare
Experience is by industry achieved, And perfected by the swift course of time.
William Shakespeare
A pal is one that is aware you while you are, understands where you have already been, accepts whatever you are becoming, and continue to, carefully means that you can develop.
William Shakespeare
Gnawing with my teeth my bonds in sunder, I gain'd my freedom.
William Shakespeare
Why should you think that I should woo in scorn? Scorn and derision never come in tears: Look, when I vow, I weep and vows so born, In their nativity all truth appears. How can these things in me seem scorn to you, Bearing the badge of faith, to prove them true?
William Shakespeare
Do you see yonder cloud that’s almost in shape of a camel? Polonius: By the mass, and ‘tis like a camel, indeed. Hamlet: Methinks it is like a weasel. Polonius: It is backed like a weasel. Hamlet: Or like a whale? Polonius: Very like a whale.
William Shakespeare
Though men can cover crimes with bold, stern looks, poor women's faces are their own faults' books.
William Shakespeare
O powerful love, that in some respects makes a beast a man, in some other, a man a beast.
William Shakespeare
Cordelia! stay a little. Ha! What is't thou say'st? Her voice was ever soft.
William Shakespeare
The most peerless piece of earth, I think, that e' er the sun shone bright on.
William Shakespeare
the fire seven times tried this seven times tried that judgement is that did never choose amiss some there be that shadows kiss such have but a shadows bliss, there be fool alive, i wis silverd o'er, and so was this Take what wife you will to bed I will ever be your head. So be gone you are sped.
William Shakespeare
Say, thou art mine and ever, My love, as it begins, shall so persevere
William Shakespeare
My prophecy is but half his journey yet, For yonder walls, that pertly front your town, Yon towers, whose wanton tops do buss the clouds, Must kiss their own feet.
William Shakespeare
How strange or odd some'er I bear myself, As I perchance hereafter shall think meet To put an antic disposition on.
William Shakespeare
Sweets with sweets war not, joy delights in joy.
William Shakespeare
Grief fills the room up of my absent child, Lies in his bed, walks up and down with me, Puts on his pretty look, repeats his words, Remembers me of his gracious parts, Stuffs out his vacant garments with his form
William Shakespeare
Thus can the demigod Authority Make us pay down for our offense by weight The words of heaven on whom it will, it will, On whom it will not, so: yet still 'tis just.
William Shakespeare
What e'er thou art, act well thy part.
William Shakespeare
