More quotes by William Shakespeare
Love reasons without reason.
William Shakespeare
It is a heretic that makes the fire, Not she which burns in it.
William Shakespeare
But we have reason to cool our raging motions, our carnal stings, our unbitted lusts whereof I take this that you call love to bea sect or scion.... It is merely a lust of the blood and a permission of the will.
William Shakespeare
Thou art a soul in bliss but I am bound Upon a wheel of fire that mine own tears Do scald like molten lead.
William Shakespeare
A peevish self-willed harlotry it is. *She’s a stubborn little brat.*
William Shakespeare
Advance our standards, set upon our foes Our ancient word of courage, fair Saint George, Inspire us with the spleen of fiery dragons!
William Shakespeare
The bashful virgin's sidelong looks of love, The matron's glance that would those looks reprove.
William Shakespeare
What valor were it, when a cur doth grin, for one to thrust his hand between his teeth, when he might spurn him with his foot away?
William Shakespeare
He hath borne himself beyond the promise of his age, doing, in the figure of a lamb, the feats of a lion.
William Shakespeare
By being seldom seen, I could not stir But like a comet I was wondered at.
William Shakespeare
A very little thief of occasion will rob you of a great deal of patience.
William Shakespeare
And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest!
William Shakespeare
Speak of me as I am. Nothing extenuate, nor set down aught in malice.
William Shakespeare
Love's heralds should be thoughts, Which ten times faster glide than the sun's beams Driving back shadows over low'ring hills. Therefore do nimble-pinioned doves draw Love, And therefore hath the wind-swift Cupid wings.
William Shakespeare
Those that are good manners at the court are as ridiculous in the country, as the behavior of the country is most mockable at the court.
William Shakespeare
You draw me, you hard-hearted adamant But yet you draw not iron, for my heart Is true as steel: leave you your power to draw, And I shall have no power to follow you.
William Shakespeare
Remembrance of things past.
William Shakespeare
Gnawing with my teeth my bonds in sunder, I gain'd my freedom.
William Shakespeare
There's such divinity doth hedge a king That treason can but peep to what it would.
William Shakespeare
I have ventured, Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders, This many summers in a sea of glory, But far beyond my depth. My high-blown pride At length broke under me, and now has left me, Weary and old with service, to the mercy Of a rude stream that must for ever hide me.
William Shakespeare
