More quotes by William Shakespeare
Out of her favour, where I am in love.
William Shakespeare
No profit grows where no pleasure is taken.
William Shakespeare
But the strong base and building of my love is as the very centre of the earth, drawing all things to it.
William Shakespeare
thus with a kiss I die
William Shakespeare
And in some perfumes there is more delight than in the breath that from my mistress reeks. I love to hear her speak, yet well I know that music hath a far more pleasing sound.
William Shakespeare
A heaven on earth I have won by wooing thee.
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
Avaunt, you cullions!
William Shakespeare
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
Downy sleep, death's counterfeit.
William Shakespeare
Is not birth, beauty, good shape, discourse, Manhood, learning, gentleness, virtue, youth, liberality, and such like, the spice and salt that season a man
William Shakespeare
My love to thee is sound, sans crack or flaw.
William Shakespeare
That England, that was wont to conquer others, Hath made a shameful conquest of itself.
William Shakespeare
Methought I heard a voice cry 'Sleep no more! Macbeth does murder sleep', the innocent sleep, Sleep that knits up the ravell'd sleeve of care, The death of each day's life, sore labour's bath, Balm of hurt minds, great nature's second course, Chief nourisher in life's feast...
William Shakespeare
For now I stand as one upon a rock environed with a wilderness of sea, who marks the waxing tide grow wave by wave, expecting ever when some envious surge will in his brinish bowels swallow him.
William Shakespeare
The silence often of pure innocence persuades when speaking fails.
William Shakespeare
LEONATO Neighbours, you are tedious. DOGBERRY It pleases your worship to say so, but we are the poor duke's officers but truly, for mine own part, if I were as tedious as a king, I could find it in my heart to bestow it all of your worship.
William Shakespeare
I will be brief. Your noble son is mad.
William Shakespeare
To persist in doing wrong extenuates not the wrong, but makes it much more heavy.
William Shakespeare
O, let my books be then the eloquence And dumb presagers of my speaking breast, Who plead for love, and look for recompense, More than that tongue that more hath more expressed.
William Shakespeare
