More quotes by William Shakespeare
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. If this be error and upon me prov'd, I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd.
William Shakespeare
A fusty nut with no kernel.
William Shakespeare
There is none but he Whose being I do fear and under him My genius is rebuked, as it is said Mark Antony's was by Caesar.
William Shakespeare
His neigh is like the bidding of a monarch, and his countenance enforces homage. He is indeed a horse.
William Shakespeare
Sweet are the uses of adversity which, like the toad, ugly and venomous, wears yet a precious jewel in his head.
William Shakespeare
Sorrow breaks seasons and reposing hours, Makes the night morning, and the noontide night.
William Shakespeare
Grief fills the room up of my absent child, Lies in his bed, walks up and down with me, Puts on his pretty look, repeats his words, Remembers me of his gracious parts, Stuffs out his vacant garments with his form
William Shakespeare
Read o'er this And after, this, and then to breakfast with What appetite you have.
William Shakespeare
Promising is the very air o' the time it opens the eyes of expectation.
William Shakespeare
Brutus, I do observe you now of late: I have not from your eyes that gentleness And show of love as I was wont to have: You bear too stubborn and too strange a hand Over your friend that loves you. Poor Brutus, with himself at war, Forgets the shows of love to other men.
William Shakespeare
More fools know Jack Fool than Jack Fool knows.
William Shakespeare
When you fear a foe, fear crushes your strength and this weakness gives strength to your opponents.
William Shakespeare
One may smile, and smile, and be a villain.
William Shakespeare
The gates of monarchs Are arched so high that giants may jet through And keep their impious turbans on without Good morrow to the sun.
William Shakespeare
Men must learn now with pity to dispense For policy sits above conscience.
William Shakespeare
Sweetest nut hath sourest rind.
William Shakespeare
I have no other but a woman's reason: I think him so, because I think him so.
William Shakespeare
It was a lover and his lass, With a hey, and a ho, and a hey nonino, That o'er the green corn-field did pass, In the spring time, the only pretty ring time, When birds do sing, hey ding a ding, ding Sweet lovers love the spring.
William Shakespeare
My cake is dough, but I'll in among the rest, Out of hope of all but my share of the feast.
William Shakespeare
As chaste as is the bud ere it be blown.
William Shakespeare
