All the world's a stage ... and you better have a zoning variance or it's coming down.
William Shakespeare
I have very poor and unhappy brains for drinking.
William Shakespeare
Beware Of entrance to a quarrel but being in, Bear't that the opposed may beware of thee. Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgment. Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, But not express'd in fancy rich, not gaudy For the apparel oft proclaims the man.
William Shakespeare
No man means evil but the devil, and we shall know him by his horns.
William Shakespeare
He is white-livered and red-faced.
William Shakespeare
The caterpillars of the commonwealth, Which I have sworn to weed and pluck away.
William Shakespeare
There are occasions and causes, why and wherefore in all things.
William Shakespeare
GLOUCESTER: Yet so much is my poverty of spirit, So mighty and so many my defects, As I had rather hide me from my greatness, Being a bark to brook no mighty sea, Than in my greatness covet to be hid, And in the vapour of my glory smother'd. But God be thanked. . . .
William Shakespeare
Give me that man that is not passion's slave, and I will wear him in my heart's core, in my heart of heart, as I do thee.
William Shakespeare
Drown thyself? Drown cats and blind puppies.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Love bears it out even to the edge of doom.
William Shakespeare
Now the good gods forbid That our renowned Rome, whose gratitude Towards her deserved children is enrolled In Jove's own book, like an unnatural dam Should now eat up her own!
William Shakespeare
One sin, I know, another doth provoke. Murder's as near to lust as flame to smoke.
William Shakespeare
All lovers swear more performance than they are able, and yet reserve an ability that they never perform vowing more than the perfection of ten, and discharging less than the tenth part of one.
William Shakespeare
A peevish self-willed harlotry it is. *She’s a stubborn little brat.*
William Shakespeare
I must be cruel only to be kind Thus bad begins, and worse remains behind.
William Shakespeare
Men have marble, women waxen, minds.
William Shakespeare
The private wound is deepest. O time most accurst, 'Mongst all foes that a friend should be the worst!
William Shakespeare
For precious friends hid in death's dateless night.
William Shakespeare
