More quotes by William Shakespeare
Dirty days hath September April June and November From January up to May The rain it raineth every day All the rest have thirty-one Without a blessed gleam of sun And if any of them had two-and-thirty They'd be just as wet and twice as dirty. April hath put a spirit of youth in everything.
William Shakespeare
At Christmas, I no more desire a rose.
William Shakespeare
You draw me, you hard-hearted adamant But yet you draw not iron, for my heart Is true as steel: leave you your power to draw, And I shall have no power to follow you.
William Shakespeare
The sweetest honey Is loathsome in his own deliciousness.
William Shakespeare
And therefore is love said to be a child, Because in choice he is so oft beguil'd
William Shakespeare
Is love a tender thing? It is too rough, too rude, too boisterous, and it pricks like thorn.
William Shakespeare
DEMETRIUS Relent, sweet Hermia: and, Lysander, yield Thy crazed title to my certain right. LYSANDER You have her father's love, Demetrius Let me have Hermia's: do you marry him.
William Shakespeare
This rough magic I here abjure and when I have required some heavenly music, which even now I do, to work mine end upon their senses that this airy charm is for, I'll break my staff, bury it certain fathoms in the earth, and deeper than did ever plummet sound, I'll drown my book.
William Shakespeare
There's nothing in this world can make me joy: Life is as tedious as a twice-told tale Vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man And bitter shame hath spoil'd the sweet world's taste That it yields nought but shame and bitterness.
William Shakespeare
Well, God's above all and there be souls must be saved, and there be souls must not be saved.
William Shakespeare
To saucy doubts and fears.
William Shakespeare
What a terrible era in which idiots govern the blind.
William Shakespeare
We fail! But screw your courage to the sticking-place, And we'll not fail.
William Shakespeare
Prepare for mirth, for mirth becomes a feast.
William Shakespeare
Give sorrow words the grief that does not speak knits up the o-er wrought heart and bids it break.
William Shakespeare
Nothing routs us but the villainy of our fears.
William Shakespeare
Now stand you on the top of happy hours, And many maiden gardens yet unset, With virtuous wish would bear you living flowers, Much liker than your painted counterfeit: So should the lines of life that life repair Which this, Time's pencil, or my pupil pen Neither in inward worth nor outward fair Can make you live your self in eyes of men.
William Shakespeare
Our fancies are more giddy and unfirm, more longing, wavering, sooner lost and won, than women's are.
William Shakespeare
Reputation is an idle and most false imposition oft got without merit, and lost without deserving.
William Shakespeare
I never yet did hear, That the bruis'd heart was pierced through the ear
William Shakespeare
