More quotes by William Shakespeare
I am the Prince of Wales and think not, Percy, To share with me in glory any more: Two stars keep not their motion in one sphere.
William Shakespeare
No deeper wrinkles yet? Hath sorrow struck So many blows upon this face of mine And made no deeper wounds?
William Shakespeare
There's no trust, No faith, no honesty in men all perjured, All forsworn, all naught, all dissemblers.
William Shakespeare
In peace there's nothing so becomes a man as modest stillness and humility.
William Shakespeare
He shall spurn fate, scorn death, and bear His hopes 'bove wisdom, grace and fear: And you all know, security Is mortals' chiefest enemy.
William Shakespeare
Be merry you have cause, so have we all, of joy for our escape is much beyond our loss . . . . then wisely weigh our sorrow with our comfort.
William Shakespeare
What win I, if I gain the thing I seek? A dream, a breath, a froth of fleeting joy. Who buys a minute's mirth to wail a week? Or sells eternity to get a toy? For one sweet grape who will the vine destroy? Or what fond beggar, but to touch the crown, Would with the sceptre straight be strucken down?
William Shakespeare
Let him smell his way to Dover!
William Shakespeare
A wicked conscience mouldeth goblins swift as frenzy thoughts.
William Shakespeare
Excellent wretch! Perdition catch my soul But I do love thee! and when I love thee not, Chaos is come again.
William Shakespeare
Where hateful Death put on his ugliest mask.
William Shakespeare
If we are true to ourselves, we can not be false to anyone.
William Shakespeare
To loathe the taste of sweetness, whereof little more than a little is by much too much.
William Shakespeare
Let me say amen betimes lest the devil cross my prayer, for here he comes in the likeness of a Jew.
William Shakespeare
If all the year were playing holidays To sport would be as tedious as to work.
William Shakespeare
That time of year thou mayst in me behold When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang Upon those boughs which shake against the cold, Bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds sang. In me thou seest the twilight of such day, As after sunset fadeth in the west, Which by-and-by black night doth take away.
William Shakespeare
I am as true as truth's simplicity, And simpler than the infancy of truth.
William Shakespeare
'By heaven, that thou art fair, is most infallible true, that thou art beauteous truth itself, that thou art lovely. More fairer than fair, beautiful than beauteous, truer than truth itself, have commiseration on thy heroical vassal.
William Shakespeare
There are occasions and causes, why and wherefore in all things.
William Shakespeare
Full fathom five thy father lies
