More quotes by William Shakespeare
If money go before, all ways do lie open.
William Shakespeare
What ugly sights of death within mine eyes!
William Shakespeare
What, all so soon asleep! I wish mine eyes Would, with themselves, shut up my thoughts.
William Shakespeare
He makes a July's day short as December.
William Shakespeare
Fair is foul, and foul is fair, hover through fog and filthy air.
William Shakespeare
The insolence of office.
William Shakespeare
Tis gold Which buys admittance--oft it doth--yea, and makes Diana's rangers false themselves, yield up This deer to th' stand o' th' stealer: and 'tis gold Which makes the true man kill'd and saves the thief, Nay, sometimes hangs both thief and true man.
William Shakespeare
A very ancient and fish-like smell.
William Shakespeare
I am a great eater of beef, and I believe that does harm to my wit.
William Shakespeare
Merrily, merrily shall I live now, Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
William Shakespeare
The icy precepts of respect.
William Shakespeare
Suspicion shall be all stuck full of eyes.
William Shakespeare
Marriage is a matter of more worth Than to be dealt in by attorneyship.
William Shakespeare
What win I, if I gain the thing I seek? A dream, a breath, a froth of fleeting joy. Who buys a minute's mirth to wail a week? Or sells eternity to get a toy? For one sweet grape who will the vine destroy? Or what fond beggar, but to touch the crown, Would with the sceptre straight be strucken down?
William Shakespeare
Wait for the season when to cast good counsels upon subsiding passion.
William Shakespeare
Hide not thy poison with such sugar'd words
William Shakespeare
The robbed that smiles, steals something from the thief.
William Shakespeare
Ever note, Lucilius, When love begins to sicken and decay It useth an enforced ceremony. There are no tricks in plain and simple faith But hollow men, like horses hot at hand, Make gallant show and promise of their mettle But when they should endure the bloody spur, They fall their crests, and like deceitful jades Sink in the trial.
William Shakespeare
If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men's cottage princes' palaces.
William Shakespeare
And send him many years of sunshine days!
William Shakespeare
