William Shakespeare
Image
So, you are very welcome to our house. It must appear in other ways than words, Therefore, I scant this breathing courtesy.
William Shakespeare
Image
One may smile, and smile, and be a villain.
William Shakespeare
Image
I do repent but heaven hath pleas'd it so To punish me with this, and this with me, That I must be their scourge and minister. I will bestow him, and will answer well The death I gave him. So again good night. I must be cruel only to be kind. Thus bad begins and worse remains behind.
William Shakespeare
Image
Men that hazard all Do it in hope of fair advantages: A golden mind stoops not to shows of dross.

Bondage is hoarse, and may not speak aloud.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Image
Much rain wears the marble.
William Shakespeare
Image
In the modesty of fearful duty, I read as much as from the rattling tongue of saucy and audacious eloquence.
William Shakespeare
Image
I should think this a gull, but that the white-bearded fellow speaks it knavery cannot, sure, hide himself in such reverence.
William Shakespeare
Image
Death, not Romeo, take my maidenhead!
William Shakespeare
Image
I do profess to be no less than I seem to serve him truly that will put me in trust: to love him that is honest to converse with him that is wise, and says little to fear judgment to fight when I cannot choose and to eat no fish.
William Shakespeare
Image
In truth, fair Montague, I am too fond.
William Shakespeare
Image
If all the year were playing holidays To sport would be as tedious as to work.
William Shakespeare
Image
O that a lady, of one man refused, Should of another therefore be abused!
William Shakespeare
Image
Come, gentlemen, I hope we shall drink down all unkindness.
