More quotes by William Shakespeare
Is this the generation of love? Hot blood, hot thoughts and hot deeds? Why, they are vipers. Is love a generation of vipers?
William Shakespeare
When Fortune means to men most good, She looks upon them with a threatening eye.
William Shakespeare
When holy and devout religious men are at their beads, 'tis hard to draw them thence so sweet is zealous contemplation.
William Shakespeare
There is a law in each well-ordered nation To curb those raging appetites that are Most disobedient and refractory.
William Shakespeare
And writers say, as the most forward bud Is eaten by the canker ere it blow, Even so by love the young and tender wit Is turn'd to folly, blasting in the bud, Losing his verdure even in the prime, And all the fair effects of future hopes.
William Shakespeare
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more Or close the wall up with our English dead! In peace there's nothing so becomes a man As modest stillness and humility: But when the blast of war blows in our ears, Then imitate the action of the tiger.
William Shakespeare
Fondling,' she saith, 'since I have hemm'd thee here Within the circuit of this ivory pale, I'll be a park, and thou shalt be my deer Feed where thou wilt, on mountain or in dale: Graze on my lips, and if those hills be dry, Stray lower, where the pleasant fountains lie.
William Shakespeare
We have seen better days.
William Shakespeare
In persons grafted in a serious trust, Negligence is a crime.
William Shakespeare
Courage and comfort, all shall yet go well
William Shakespeare
'Tis better to be vile than vile esteemed
William Shakespeare
Blessings of your heart, you brew good ale.
William Shakespeare
O, let me kiss that hand! KING LEAR: Let me wipe it first it smells of mortality.
William Shakespeare
I once did hold it, as our statists do, A baseness to write fair, and labour'd much How to forget that learning but, sir, now It did me yeoman's service.
William Shakespeare
Lady, you are the cruel'st she alive If you will lead these graces to the grave And leave the world no copy.
William Shakespeare
Men's evil manners live in brass their virtues we write in water.
William Shakespeare
The stroke of death is as a lover's pinch, which hurts and is desired.
William Shakespeare
Women are as roses, whose fair flower, being once displayed, doth fall that very hour.
William Shakespeare
Why then, O brawling love! O loving hate! O any thing, of nothing first create! O heavy lightness, serious vanity, Misshapen chaos of well-seeming forms, Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health, Still-waking sleep, that is not what it is! This love feel I, that feel no love in this.
William Shakespeare
That is the way to lay the city flat, To bring the roof to the foundation, And bury all, which yet distinctly ranges, In heaps and piles of ruin.
William Shakespeare
