More quotes by William Shakespeare
Your face, my thane, is as a book where men May read strange matters. To beguile the time, Look like the time bear welcome in your eye, Your hand, your tongue: look like the innocent flower, But be the serpent under't.
William Shakespeare
They that stand high have many blasts to shake them.
William Shakespeare
In nature there's no blemish but the mind. None can be called deformed but the unkind.
William Shakespeare
Though patience be a tired mare, yet she will plod.
William Shakespeare
Tax not so bad a voice to slander music any more than once.
William Shakespeare
Even as one heat another heat expels, or as one nail by strength drives out another, so the remembrance of my former love is by a newer object quite forgotten.
William Shakespeare
Preposterous ass, that never read so far to know the cause why music was ordain'd! Was it not to refresh the mind of man, after his studies or his usual pain?
William Shakespeare
Words spoken can not be recalled so think twice before you speak.
William Shakespeare
Go to you bosom: Knock there, and ask your heart what it doth know.
William Shakespeare
The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.
William Shakespeare
I could be well content To entertain the lag-end of my life With quiet hours.
William Shakespeare
So we grew together like to a double cherry, seeming parted, but yet an union in partition, two lovely berries molded on one stem.
William Shakespeare
This sanguine coward, this bed-presser, this horseback-breaker, this huge hill of flesh!
William Shakespeare
With this special observance, that you o'erstep not the modesty of nature. for anything so overdone is from the purpose of playing, whose end, both at the first and now, was and is, to hold, as 'twere, the mirror up to nature.
William Shakespeare
Gratiano speaks an infinite deal of nothing, more than any man in all Venice. His reasons are as two grains of wheat hid in two bushels of chaff: you shall seek all day ere you find them, and when you have them, they are not worth the search.
William Shakespeare
In friendship, as in love, we are often happier through our ignorance than our knowledge.
William Shakespeare
Away, you cut-purse rascal! you filthy bung, away! By this wine, I'll thrust my knife in your mouldy chaps, an you play the saucy cuttle with me. Away, you bottle-ale rascal! you basket-hilt stale juggler, you!
William Shakespeare
Who would be so mocked with glory, or to live But in a dream of friendship, To have his pomp and all what state compounds But only painted, like his varnished friends?
William Shakespeare
Marriage is a matter of more worth Than to be dealt in by attorneyship.
William Shakespeare
You see me here, you gods, a poor old man, As full of grief as age wretched in both.
William Shakespeare
