More quotes by William Shakespeare
Ornament is but the guiled shore to a most dangerous sea.
William Shakespeare
It is great To do that thing that ends all other deeds, Which shackles accidents and bolts up change.
William Shakespeare
'Tis one thing to be tempted, another thing to fall.
William Shakespeare
Finish, good lady the bright day is done, And we are for the Dark.
William Shakespeare
Silence is the perfectest herald of joy: I were but little happy, if I could say how much. Lady, as you are mine, I am yours: I give away myself for you and dote upon the exchange.
William Shakespeare
O gentle son, Upon the heat and flame of thy distemper, sprinkle cool patience.
William Shakespeare
The course of true love never did run smooth.
William Shakespeare
He's loved of the distracted multitude, who like not in their judgement, but their eyes.
William Shakespeare
Thine eyes I love, and they as pitying me, Knowing thy heart torment me with disdain, Have put on black, and loving mourners be, Looking with pretty ruth upon my pain.
William Shakespeare
But whate'er I am, nor I nor any man that but man is, With nothing shall be pleased 'til he be eased With being nothing.
William Shakespeare
When most I wink, then do my eyes best see
William Shakespeare
Let every eye negotiate for itself and trust no agent.
William Shakespeare
The clamorous owl that nightly hoots and wonders At our quaint spirits.
William Shakespeare
Love's heralds should be thoughts, Which ten times faster glide than the sun's beams Driving back shadows over low'ring hills. Therefore do nimble-pinioned doves draw Love, And therefore hath the wind-swift Cupid wings.
William Shakespeare
To die, to sleep - To sleep, perchance to dream - ay, there's the rub, For in this sleep of death what dreams may come.
William Shakespeare
Short time seems long in sorrow's sharp sustaining.
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
She dreams of him that has forgot her love You dote on her that cares not for your love. 'Tis pity love should be so contrary And thinking of it makes me cry 'alas!
William Shakespeare
Retire me to my Milan, where Every third thought shall be my grave.
William Shakespeare
Trust not your daughter's minds By what you see them act.
William Shakespeare
