More quotes by William Shakespeare
Time ... thou ceaseless lackey to eternity.
William Shakespeare
For oaths are straws, men's faiths are wafer-cakes, And hold-fast is the only dog.
William Shakespeare
Study is like the heaven's glorious sun, That will not be deep-searched with saucy looks: Small have continual plodders ever won, Save base authority from others' books.
William Shakespeare
What should a man do but be merry? For look you how cheerfully my mother looks, and my father died within's two hours.
William Shakespeare
Bosom upon my counsel You'll find it wholesome.
William Shakespeare
Sweets grown common lose their dear delight.
William Shakespeare
Cheerily to sea the signs of war advance: No king of England, if not king of France
William Shakespeare
I would fain die a dry death.
William Shakespeare
Are there no stones in heaven But what serves for thunder?
William Shakespeare
My soul is in the sky.
William Shakespeare
There is some soul of goodness in things evil, Would men observingly distill it out.
William Shakespeare
Do not swear by the moon, for she changes constantly. Then your love would also change.
William Shakespeare
O' What may man within him hide, though angel on the outward side!
William Shakespeare
I do know when the blood burns, how prodigal the soul lends the tongue vows.
William Shakespeare
Put on The dauntless spirit of resolution.
William Shakespeare
Be advised Heat not a furnace for your foe so hot That it do singe yourself: we may outrun, By violent swiftness, that which we run at, And lose by over-running. Know you not, The fire that mounts the liquor til run o'er, In seeming to augment it wastes it?
William Shakespeare
If is a custom, More honor'd in the breach than the observance.
William Shakespeare
This rough magic I here abjure and when I have required some heavenly music, which even now I do, to work mine end upon their senses that this airy charm is for, I'll break my staff, bury it certain fathoms in the earth, and deeper than did ever plummet sound, I'll drown my book.
William Shakespeare
Drink down all unkindness.
William Shakespeare
The urging of that word, judgment, hath bred a kind of remorse in me.
William Shakespeare
