More quotes by William Shakespeare
The breach of custom Is breach of all.
William Shakespeare
Marry, sir, they praise me and make an ass of me. Now my foes tell me plainly I am an ass so that by my foes, sir, I profit in the knowledge of myself, any by my friends I am abused so that, conclusions to be as kisses, if your four negatives make your two affirmatives, why then, the worse for my friends, and the better for my foes.
William Shakespeare
Too much to know is to know nought but fame And every godfather can give a name.
William Shakespeare

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
I count myself in nothing else so happy as in a soul remembering my good Friends
William Shakespeare
Reflection is the business of man a sense of his state is his first duty: but who remembereth himself in joy? Is it not in mercy then that sorrow is allotted unto us?
William Shakespeare
For 'tis the sport to have the engineerHoist with his own petard.
William Shakespeare
When words are scarce they are seldom spent in vain.
William Shakespeare
Most dear actors, eat no onions nor garlic, for we are to utter sweet breath.
William Shakespeare
He hath disgrac'd me and hind'red me half a million laugh'd at my losses, mock'd at my gains, scorned my nation, thwarted my bargains, cooled my friends, heated my enemies. And what's his reason? I am a Jew.
William Shakespeare
Do not give dalliance too much rein the strongest oaths are straw to the fire in the blood.
William Shakespeare
He hath borne himself beyond the promise of his age, doing, in the figure of a lamb, the feats of a lion.
William Shakespeare
It is not vain glory for a man and his glass to confer in his own chamber.
William Shakespeare
