More quotes by William Shakespeare
The morning steals upon the night, Melting the darkness.
William Shakespeare
True, I talk of dreams, Which are the children of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy.
William Shakespeare
Love all. Trust a few. Do wrong to none. This above all: to thine own self be true. No legacy is so rich as honesty. Brevity is the soul of wit
William Shakespeare
Season your admiration for a while.
William Shakespeare
Be merry, and employ your chiefest thoughts To courtship and such fair ostents of love As shall conveniently become you there.
William Shakespeare
O, I have suffered With those that I saw suffer!
William Shakespeare
The gray-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night, Checkering the eastern clouds with streaks of light.
William Shakespeare
And when love speaks, the voice of all the gods makes Heaven drowsy with the harmony.
William Shakespeare
O, reason not the need!
William Shakespeare
No matter where of comfort no man speak: Let's talk of graves, of worms, and epitaphs Make dust our paper and with rainy eyes Write sorrow on the bosom of the earth
William Shakespeare
Before thee stands this fair Hesperides, With golden fruit, but dangerous to be touched For death-like dragons here affright thee hard.
William Shakespeare
Never anything can be amiss, when simpleness and duty tender it.
William Shakespeare
DEMETRIUS Relent, sweet Hermia: and, Lysander, yield Thy crazed title to my certain right. LYSANDER You have her father's love, Demetrius Let me have Hermia's: do you marry him.
William Shakespeare
Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long / To speak of that which gives thee all thy might?
William Shakespeare
O Ceremony, show me but thy worth? What is thy soul of adoration? Art thou aught else but place, degree, and form, Creating awe and fear in other men?
William Shakespeare
Here, thou incestuous, murderous, damned Dane, Drink off this potion!
William Shakespeare
We must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
William Shakespeare
This thing of darkness I acknowlege mine. There is nothing more confining than the prison we don't know we are in.
William Shakespeare
This fellow pecks up wit, as pigeons peas And utters it again when God doth please: He is wit's pedler and retails his wares.
William Shakespeare
Oh why rebuke you him that loves you so? / Lay breath so bitter on your bitter foe.
William Shakespeare
