More quotes by William Shakespeare
Why, i' faith, methinks she's too low for a high praise, too brown for a fair praise and too little for a great praise: only this commendation I can afford her, that were she other than she is, she were unhandsome and being no other but as she is, I do not like her. (Benedick, from Much Ado About Nothing)
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Why, thou knowest I am as valiant as Hercules, but beware instinct. The lion will not touch the true prince. Instinct is a great matter. I was a coward on instinct.
William Shakespeare
'Tis better to be vile than vile esteemed, When not to be, receives reproach of being, And the just pleasure lost, which is so deemed, Not by our feeling, but by others' seeing.
William Shakespeare
They that touch pitch will be defiled.
William Shakespeare
So may I, blind fortune leading me, Miss that which one unworthier may attain, And die with grieving.
William Shakespeare
No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity. But I know none, and therefore am no beast.

so full of shapes is fancy
William Shakespeare
How strange or odd some'er I bear myself, As I perchance hereafter shall think meet To put an antic disposition on.
