More quotes by William Shakespeare
Let not our babbling dreams affright our souls Conscience is but a work that cowards use, Devised at first to keep the strong in awe: Our strong arms be our conscience, swords our law!
William Shakespeare
As honour, love, obedience, troops of friends, / I must not look to have but, in their stead, / Curses, not loud but deep, mouth-honour, breath, / Which the poor heart would fain deny, and dare not (5.3.25-28).
William Shakespeare
Say as you think and speak it from your souls.
William Shakespeare
Words pay no debts, give her deeds.
William Shakespeare
. . . nothing in his life Became him like the leaving it he died As one that had been studied in his death To throw away the dearest thing he owed, As 'twere a careless trifle.
William Shakespeare
I had rather hear my dog bark at a crow, than a man swear he loves me.
William Shakespeare
ROMEO There is thy gold, worse poison to men's souls, Doing more murders in this loathsome world, Than these poor compounds that thou mayst not sell. I sell thee poison thou hast sold me none. Farewell: buy food, and get thyself in flesh. Come, cordial and not poison, go with me To Juliet's grave for there must I use thee.
William Shakespeare
A good leg will fall a straight back will stoop a black beard will turn white a curl'd pate will grow bald a fair face will wither a full eye will wax hollow: but a good heart, Kate, is the sun and the moon or, rather, the sun, and not the moon, — for it shines bright, and never changes, but keeps his course truly.
William Shakespeare
I'll follow thee and make a heaven of hell, To die upon the hand I love so well
William Shakespeare
Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible to feelings as to sight?
William Shakespeare
Faith, there hath been many great men that have flattered the people who ne'er loved them.
William Shakespeare
That England, that was wont to conquer others, Hath made a shameful conquest of itself.
William Shakespeare
I must have liberty Withal, as large a charter as the wind, To blow on whom I please, for so fools have.
William Shakespeare
O Lord that lends me life, Lend me a heart replete with thankfulness!
William Shakespeare
Talking isn't doing. It is a kind of good deed to say well and yet words are not deeds.
William Shakespeare
The best quarrels, in the heat, are cursed by those that feel their sharpness.
William Shakespeare
Headstrong liberty is lashed with woe.
William Shakespeare
I am the Prince of Wales and think not, Percy, To share with me in glory any more: Two stars keep not their motion in one sphere.
William Shakespeare
This is the very coinage of your brain: this bodiless creation ecstasy.
William Shakespeare
The undeserver may sleep when the man of action is called on.
William Shakespeare
