More quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
He's truly valiant that can wisely suffer The worst that man can breathe, and make his wrongs His outsides, to wear them like his raiment, carelessly, And ne'er prefer his injuries to his heart, To bring it into danger.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
My love is thaw'd Which, like a waxen image 'gainst a fire, bears no impression of the thing it was
William Shakespeare
Beggar that I am, I am even poor in thanks, but I thank you and sure, dear friends, my thanks are too dear a halfpenny.
William Shakespeare
The blood weeps from my heart when I do shape, In forms imaginary, th' unguided days And rotten times that you shall look upon When I am sleeping with my ancestors.
William Shakespeare
A good old man, sir. He will be talking. As they say, when the age is in, the wit is out.
William Shakespeare
For which of my bad parts didst thou first fall in love with me?
William Shakespeare
This royal throne of kings, this scepter'd isle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-Paradise.
William Shakespeare
All hoods make not monks.
William Shakespeare
