Is twenty hundred kisses such a trouble?
William Shakespeare
Here's flowers for you Hot lavender, mints, savoury, marjoram The marigold, that goes to bed wi' the sun And with him rises weeping: these are flowers Of middle summer, and I think they are given To men of middle age.
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
Evermore thanks, the exchequer of the poor
William Shakespeare
I will despair, and be at enmity With cozening hope.
William Shakespeare
Devils soonest tempt, resembling spirits of light.

William Shakespeare
You speak like a green girl / unsifted in such perilous circumstances.
William Shakespeare
Many strokes, though with a little axe, hew down and fell the hardest-timber'd oak.
William Shakespeare
Yet do I fear thy nature It is too full o' the milk of human kindness To catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great Art not without ambition, but without The illness should attend it: what thou wouldst highly, That wouldst thou holily wouldst not play false, And yet wouldst wrongly win.
William Shakespeare
But as the unthought-on accident is guilty To what we wildly do, so we profess Ourselves to be the slaves of chance, and flies Of every wind that blows.
William Shakespeare
The love of heaven makes one heavenly.
William Shakespeare
Why, who cries out on pride that can therein tax any private party? Doth it not flow as hugely as the sea till the weary very means do ebb?
William Shakespeare
Tell them, that, to ease them of their griefs, Their fear of hostile strokes, their aches, losses, Their pangs of love, with other incident throes That nature's fragile vessel doth sustain In life's uncertain voyage, I will some kindness do them.
William Shakespeare
There is no sure foundation set on blood, No certain life achieved by others' death.
William Shakespeare
It is a familiar beast to man, and signifies love.
William Shakespeare
Gold--what can it not do, and undo?
William Shakespeare
It were a grief so brief to part with thee. Farewell.
William Shakespeare
Ay, but to die and go we know not where To lie in cold obstrution and to rot This sensible warm motion to become A kneaded clod and the delighted spirit To bathe in fiery floods or to reside In thrilling regions of thick-ribbed ice To be imprison'd in the viewless winds, And blown with restless violence round about The pendant world.
