More quotes by William Shakespeare
There are a sort of men, whose visages Do cream and mantle, like a standing pond And do a willful stillness entertain, With purpose to be dressed in an opinion Of wisdom, gravity profound conceit As who should say, I am sir Oracle, And when I ope my lips, let no dog bark!
William Shakespeare
My father names me Autolycus, who being, as I am, littered under Mercury, was likewise a snapper-up of unconsidered trifles.
William Shakespeare
How sweet the moonlight sleeps upon this bank Here we will sit, and let the sounds of music Creep in our ears soft stillness, and the night Become the touches of sweet harmony
William Shakespeare
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. If this be error and upon me prov'd, I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd.
William Shakespeare
Fear no more the heat o' th' sun Nor the furious winters' rages Thou thy worldly task hast done, Home art gone, and ta'en thy wages. Golden lads and girls all must, As chimney-sweepers, come to dust.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
And Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by, From this day to the ending of the world, But we in it shall be remembered- We few, we happy few, we band of brothers For he to-day that sheds his blood with me Shall be my brother
William Shakespeare
A light heart lives long.
William Shakespeare
I beseech you, Wrest once the law to your authority: To do a great right, do a little wrong.
William Shakespeare
love is blind and lovers cannot see the pretty follies that themselves commit
William Shakespeare
The nature of bad news affects the teller.
William Shakespeare
Love reasons without reason.
William Shakespeare
To hold, as 't were, the mirror up to nature.
William Shakespeare
A substitute shines brightly as a king Until a king be by, and then his state Empties itself, as dot an inland brook Into the main of waters.
William Shakespeare
So quick bright things come to confusion.
William Shakespeare
A great while ago the world begun, With hey, ho, the wind and the rain But that's all one, our play is done, And we'll strive to please you every day.
William Shakespeare
Promising is the very air o' the time it opens the eyes of expectation.
William Shakespeare
Use every man according to his desert and who should 'scape whipping? Use them after your own honor and dignity, the less they deserve ... the more merit in your bounty.
