More quotes by William Shakespeare
Light and lust are deadly enemies.
William Shakespeare
These are the forgeries of jealousy And never, since the middle summer's spring, Met we on hill, in dale, forest, or mead, By paved fountain or by rushy brook, Or in the beached margent of the sea, To dance our ringlets to the whistling wind, But with thy brawls thou hast disturbed our sport.
William Shakespeare
While he was drunk asleep, or in his rage, or in the incestuous pleasure of his bed.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
I am not yet of Percy's mind, the Hotspur of the North he that kills me some six or seven dozen of Scots as a breakfast, washes his hands, and says to his wife, 'Fie upon this quiet life! I want work.
William Shakespeare
Take but degree away, untune that string, and hark, what discord follows!
William Shakespeare
And in the morn and liquid dew of youth, Contagious blastments are are most imminent.
William Shakespeare
You know That I do fawn on men, and hug them hard, And after scandal them.
William Shakespeare
I do not know What kind of my obedience I should tender. More than my all is nothing nor my prayers Are not words holy hallowed, nor my wishes More worth than empty vanities yet prayers and wishes Are all I can return.
William Shakespeare
To hold, as 't were, the mirror up to nature.
William Shakespeare
