More quotes by William Shakespeare
Thou hast no figures nor no fantasies Which busy care draws in the brains of men Therefore thou sleep'st so sound.
William Shakespeare
Ay me! for aught that I could ever read, Could ever hear by tale or history, The course of true love never did run smooth. But, either it was different in blood,- Or else it stood upon the choice of friends,- Or, if there were a sympathy in choice, War, death, or sickness did lay siege to it.
William Shakespeare
I shall laugh myself to death at this puppy-headed monster!
William Shakespeare
Let never day nor night unhallowed pass, but still remember what the Lord hath done.
William Shakespeare
Lady, with me, with me thy fortune lies.
William Shakespeare
Like Patience gazing on kings' graves, and smiling Extremity out of act.
William Shakespeare
Under the colour of commending him I have access my own love to prefer But Silvia is too fair, too true, too holy, To be corrupted with my worthless gifts.
William Shakespeare
Thou shouldst not have been old till thou hadst been wise.
William Shakespeare
The glowworm shows the matin to be near And gins to pale his uneffectual fire.
William Shakespeare
Come, Lady, die to live.
William Shakespeare
Remuneration! O! That's the Latin word for three farthings
William Shakespeare
And do so, love, yet when they have devised What strainèd touches rhetoric can lend, Thou, truly fair, wert truly sympathized In true plain words by thy true-telling friend And their gross painting might be better used Where cheeks need blood in thee it is abused.
William Shakespeare
Keep thy foot out of brothels, thy hand out of plackets, thy pen from lender's books, and defy the foul fiend.
William Shakespeare
Trip over love, you can get up. Fall in love and you fall forever. Anyone can catch your eye, but it takes someone special to catch your heart. Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs.
William Shakespeare
But whate'er I am, nor I nor any man that but man is, With nothing shall be pleased 'til he be eased With being nothing.
William Shakespeare
I hold the world but as the world, Gratiano A stage where every man must play a part, And mine is a sad one.
William Shakespeare
Sweet recreation barred, what doth ensue but moody and dull melancholy, kinsman to grim and comfortless despair.
William Shakespeare
These violent delights have violent ends And in their triump die, like fire and powder Which, as they kiss, consume
William Shakespeare
A miracle. Here's our own hands against our hearts. Come, I will have thee, but by this light I take thee for pity. Beatrice: I would not deny you, but by this good day, I yield upon great persuasion, and partly to save your life, for I was told you were in a consumption. Benedick: Peace. I will stop your mouth.
William Shakespeare
I pray you, do not fall in love with me, for I am falser than vows made in wine.
William Shakespeare
