More quotes by William Shakespeare
I do not hate a proud man, as I do hate the engendering of toads.
William Shakespeare
When I have plucked the rose, I cannot give it vital growth again, It needs must wither. I'll smell it on the tree.
William Shakespeare
I loved Ophelia. Forty thousand brothers could not, with all their quantity of love, make up my sum.
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
so full of shapes is fancy
William Shakespeare
O, what men dare do! what men may do! what men daily do, not knowing what they do.
William Shakespeare
Love is heavy and light, bright and dark, hot and cold, sick and healthy, asleep and awake- its everything except what it is! (Act 1, scene 1)
William Shakespeare
I am not only witty in myself, but the cause that wit is in other men.
William Shakespeare
This liberty is all that I request.
William Shakespeare
Tired with all these for restful death I cry, As to behold desert a beggar born, And needy nothing trimmed in jollity, And purest faith unhappily forsworn.
William Shakespeare
It is to be all made of fantasy, All made of passion and all made of wishes, All adoration, duty, and observance, All humbleness, all patience and impatience, All purity, all trial, all observance
William Shakespeare
This man, lady, hath robb'd many beasts of their particular additions: he is as valiant as a lion, churlish as the bear, slow as the elephant-a man into whom nature hath so crowded humours that his valour is crush'd into folly, his folly sauced with discretion.
William Shakespeare
May never glorious sun reflex his beams Upon the country where you make abode! But darkness and the gloomy shade of death Environ you till mischief and despair Drive you to break your necks or hang yourselves.
William Shakespeare
That god forbid, that made me first your slave, I should in thought control your times of pleasure, Or at your hand th' account of hours to crave, Being your vassal bound to stay your leisure.
William Shakespeare
Love`s reason`s without reason
William Shakespeare
For death remembered should be like a mirror, Who tells us life’s but breath, to trust it error.
William Shakespeare
Very good orators, when they are out, they will spit and for lovers, lacking--God warn us!--matter, the cleanliest shift is to kiss.
William Shakespeare
In delay there lies no plenty.
William Shakespeare
Because I cannot flatter and look fair, Smile in men's faces, smooth, deceive, and cog, Duck with French nods and apish courtesy, I must be held a rancorous enemy.
William Shakespeare
Yon grey lines That fret the clouds are messengers of day.
William Shakespeare
