More quotes by William Shakespeare
I am not of that feather, to shake off my friend when he must need me
William Shakespeare
Well could he ride, and often men would say, That horse his mettle from his rider takes: Proud of subjection, noble by the sway, What rounds, what bounds, what course, what stop he makes! And controversy hence a question takes, Whether the horse by him became his deed, Or he his manage by the well-doing steed.
William Shakespeare
Know my name is lost, By treason's tooth bare-gnawn and canker-bit Yet am I noble as the adversary I come to cope.
William Shakespeare
Slanders, sir, for the satirical rogue says here that old men have grey beards, that their faces are wrinkled, their eyes purging think amber and plum-tree gum, and that they have a plentiful lack of wit, together with most weak hams.
William Shakespeare
To gild refined gold, to paint the lily... is wasteful and ridiculous excess
William Shakespeare
But no perfection is so absolute, That some impurity doth not pollute.
William Shakespeare
When a man's verses cannot be understood, nor a man's good wit seconded with the forward child understanding, it strikes a man more dead than a great reckoning in a little room. Truly, I would the gods had made thee poetical.
William Shakespeare
No, no 'tis all men's office to speak patience To those that wring under the load of sorrow, But no man's virtue nor sufficiency To be so moral when he shall endure The like himself. Therefore give me no counsel: My griefs cry louder than advertisement.
William Shakespeare
Come, woo me, woo me, for now I am in a holiday humor, and like enough to consent.
William Shakespeare
Every fair from fair sometime declines
William Shakespeare
How art thou out of breath when thou hast breath To say to me that thou art out of breath?
William Shakespeare
Words pay no debts, give her deeds.
William Shakespeare
What we determine we often break. Purpose is but the slave to memory.
William Shakespeare
Blood will have blood.
William Shakespeare
How many a holy and obsequious tear hath dear religious love stolen from mine eye, as interest of the dead!
William Shakespeare
There is nothing but roguery to be found in villainous men.
William Shakespeare
Fight to the last gasp.
William Shakespeare
Look how the world's poor people are amazed at apparitions, signs and prodigies!
William Shakespeare
I do know of these That therefore only are reputed wise For saying nothing.
William Shakespeare
The cheek Is apter than the tongue to tell an errand.
William Shakespeare
