More quotes by William Shakespeare
Thou know'st 'tis common all that lives must die, Passing through nature to eternity.
William Shakespeare
That you were once unkind befriends me now, And for that sorrow, which I then did feel, Needs must I under my transgression bow, Unless my nerves were brass or hammered steel.
William Shakespeare
Know my name is lost, By treason's tooth bare-gnawn and canker-bit Yet am I noble as the adversary I come to cope.
William Shakespeare
Let me have men about me that are fat... Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look. He thinks too much: such men are dangerous.
William Shakespeare
Thy wish was father, Harry, to that thought.
William Shakespeare
GLOUCESTER: I do not know that Englishman alive With whom my soul is any jot at odds, More than the infant that is born to-night: I thank my God for my humility.
William Shakespeare
Be great in act, as you have been in thought.
William Shakespeare
He is white-livered and red-faced.
William Shakespeare
By Heaven, my soul is purg'd from grudging hate And with my hand I seal my true heart's love
William Shakespeare
If fortune torments me, hope contents me.
William Shakespeare
Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove. O, no! It is an ever-fixed mark, That looks on tempests and is never shaken. It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
William Shakespeare
My business was great, and in such a case as mine a man may strain courtesy.
William Shakespeare
He is as full of valor as of kindness. Princely in both.
William Shakespeare
Though Death be poor, it ends a mortal woe.
William Shakespeare
For I am nothing if not critical.
William Shakespeare
I am indeed, sir, a surgeon to old shoes when they are in great danger I recover them.
William Shakespeare
Thy words, I grant are bigger, for I wear not, my dagger in my mouth.
William Shakespeare
So. Lie there, my art.
William Shakespeare
Some kinds of baseness are nobly undergone.
William Shakespeare
Tears harden lust, though marble wear with raining.
William Shakespeare
