Make use of time, let not advantage slip Beauty within itself should not be wasted: Fair flowers that are not gather'd in their prime Rot and consume themselves in little time.
William Shakespeare
Image
What is done cannot be now amended.
William Shakespeare
Image

William Shakespeare
Image
Drink down all unkindness.
William Shakespeare
Image
Through tattered clothes great vices do appear Robes and furred gowns hide all. Plate sin with gold and the strong lance of justice hurtless breaks. Arm it in rags, a pigmy's straw does pierce it.
William Shakespeare

Ay, in the catalogue ye go for men As hounds, and greyhounds, mongrels, spaniels, curs, Shoughs, water-rugs, and demi-wolves, are 'clept All by the name of dogs: the valued file Distinguishes the swift, the slow, the subtle, The housekeeper, the hunter, every one According to the gift which bounteous nature Hath in him closed.
William Shakespeare
Image

O that my tongue were in the thunder's mouth! Then with passion would I shake the world, And rouse from sleep that fell anatomy Which cannot hear a lady's feeble voice, Which scorns a modern invocation.
William Shakespeare
Image
...and then, in dreaming, / The clouds methought would open and show riches / Ready to drop upon me, that when I waked / I cried to dream again.
William Shakespeare
Image
That which in mean men we entitle patience is pale cold cowardice in noble breasts.
William Shakespeare
Image
O King, believe not this hard-hearted man!
William Shakespeare
Image
All days are nights to see till I see thee, And nights bright days when dreams do show thee me.
William Shakespeare
Image
A friend should bear his friend's infirmities.
William Shakespeare
Image
Coward dogs most spend their mouths when what they seem to threaten runs far before them.
William Shakespeare
Image
Lions make leopards tame.
William Shakespeare
Image
How art thou out of breath when thou hast breath To say to me that thou art out of breath?
William Shakespeare
Image
By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes.
William Shakespeare
Image
It is great To do that thing that ends all other deeds, Which shackles accidents and bolts up change.
