More quotes by William Shakespeare
One whom the music of his own vain tongue doth ravish like enchanting harmony.
William Shakespeare
So may he rest, his faults lie gently on him!
William Shakespeare
All surfeit is the father of much fast.
William Shakespeare
Two households, both alike in dignity In fair Verona, where we lay our scene From ancient grudge break to new mutiny Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life Whose misadventured piteous overthrows Do with their death bury their parents' strife.
William Shakespeare
Love is merely a madness and, I tell you, deserves as well a dark house and a whip as madmen do and the reason why they are not so punish'd and cured is that the lunacy is so ordinary that the whippers are in love too.
William Shakespeare
O, speak again, bright angel! for thou art As glorious to this night, being o'er my head As is a winged messenger of heaven
William Shakespeare
Is there no pity sitting in the clouds, That sees into the bottom of my grief?
William Shakespeare
A man can die but once.
William Shakespeare
There are a sort of men, whose visages Do cream and mantle, like a standing pond And do a willful stillness entertain, With purpose to be dressed in an opinion Of wisdom, gravity profound conceit As who should say, I am sir Oracle, And when I ope my lips, let no dog bark!
William Shakespeare
Love, which teacheth me that thou and I am one
William Shakespeare
Heat not a furnace for your foe so hot that it do singe yourself.
William Shakespeare
The will of man is by his reason sway'd.
William Shakespeare
Methought I was enamour'd of an ass.
William Shakespeare
But say, my lord, it were not regist'red, Methinks the truth should live from age to age, As 'twere retailed to all posterity, Even to the general all-ending day.
William Shakespeare
T'is true: there's magic in the web of it.
William Shakespeare
We will all laugh at gilded butterflies.
William Shakespeare
Ere yet the salt of most unrighteous tears Had left the flushing of her gallèd eyes, She married. O, most wicked speed, to post With such dexterity to incestuous sheets!
William Shakespeare
If it were done when 'tis done, then 'twere well. It were done quickly.
William Shakespeare
Lady, you are the cruel'st she alive If you will lead these graces to the grave And leave the world no copy.
William Shakespeare
In friendship, as in love, we are often happier through our ignorance than our knowledge.
William Shakespeare
