More quotes by William Shakespeare
The jury passing on the prisoner's life may in the sworn twelve have a thief or two guiltier than him they try.
William Shakespeare
O world, how apt the poor are to be proud!
William Shakespeare
Art thou afeard To be the same in thine own act and valour As thou art in desire? Wouldst thou have that Which thou esteem'st the ornament of life, And live a coward in thine own esteem, Letting 'I dare not' wait upon 'I would,' Like the poor cat i' the adage?
William Shakespeare
How many fond fools serve mad jealousy!
William Shakespeare
Men judge by the complexion of the sky The state and inclination of the day.
William Shakespeare
Our purses shall be proud, our garments poor for 'tis the mind that makes the body rich
William Shakespeare
To business that we love we rise betime, and go to't with delight.
William Shakespeare
Knit your hearts with an unslipping knot.
William Shakespeare
To hell, allegiance! vows, to the blackest devil! Conscience, and grace, to the profoundest pit! I dare damnation: To this point I stand,-- That both the worlds I give to negligence, Let come what comes only I'll be reveng'd.
William Shakespeare
My father's wit, and my mother's tongue, assist me!
William Shakespeare
I dote on his very absence.
William Shakespeare
See how she leans her cheek upon her hand. O, that I were a glove upon that hand That I might touch that cheek!
William Shakespeare
But indeed an old religious uncle of mine taught me to speak, who was in his youth an inland man one that knew courtship too well, for there he fell in love. I have heard him read many lectures against it and I thank God I am not a woman, to be touched with so many giddy offenses as he hath generally taxed their whole sex withal.
William Shakespeare
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.
William Shakespeare
Preferment goes by letter and affection, And not by old gradation, where each second Stood heir to th's first.
William Shakespeare
O wretched state! o bosom black as death!
William Shakespeare
Doubt is a thief that often makes us fear to tread where we might have won.
William Shakespeare
Look, the world's comforter, with weary gait, His day's hot task hath ended in the west: The owl, night's herald, shrieks-'tis very late The sheep are gone to fold, birds to their nest And coal-black clouds, that shadow heaven's light, Do summon us to part, and bid good night.
William Shakespeare
We will meet and there we may rehearse most obscenely and courageously.
William Shakespeare
O, swear not by the moon, the fickle moon, the inconstant moon, that monthly changes in her circle orb, Lest that thy love prove likewise variable
William Shakespeare
