More quotes by William Shakespeare
Ingratitude is monstrous.
William Shakespeare
I do profess to be no less than I seem to serve him truly that will put me in trust: to love him that is honest to converse with him that is wise, and says little to fear judgment to fight when I cannot choose and to eat no fish.
William Shakespeare
That but this blow Might be the be-all and the end-all here, But here, upon this bank and shoal of time, We'ld jump the life to come.
William Shakespeare
To think but nobly of my grandmother: Good wombs have borne bad sons.
William Shakespeare
No profit grows where no pleasure is taken.
William Shakespeare
Avaunt, you cullions!

William Shakespeare
... I am At war 'twixt will and will not.
William Shakespeare
A good sherris-sack hath a twofold operation in it. It ascends me into the brain,... makes it apprehensive, quick, forgetive, full of nimble, fiery, and delectable shapes.
William Shakespeare
I'll give my jewels for a set of beads, My gorgeous palace for a hermitage, My gay apparel for an almsman's gown, My figured goblets for a dish of wood, My scepter for a palmer's walking staff My subjects for a pair of carved saints and my large kingdom for a little grave.
William Shakespeare
The rose looks fair, but fairer we it deem For that sweet odour which doth in it live.
William Shakespeare
He that sleeps feels not the tooth-ache
William Shakespeare
...too much sadness hath congealed your blood,And melancholy is the nurse of frenzy.
William Shakespeare
I do beseech you- Though I perchance am vicious in my guess , that your wisdom yet From one that so imperfectly conjects Would take no notice, nor build yourself a trouble Out of his scattering and unsure observance.
William Shakespeare
Then happy I that love and am beloved, where I may not remove nor be removed.
William Shakespeare
Crack'd in pieces by malignant Death.
William Shakespeare
If our virtues did not go forth of us, it were all alike as if we had them not.
William Shakespeare
Thou lump of foul deformity!
William Shakespeare
Taffeta phrases, silken terms precise, Three-piled hyperboles, spruce affection, Figures pedantical--these summer flies Have blown me full of maggot ostentation.
William Shakespeare
