More quotes by William Shakespeare
A contract of eternal bond of love, Confirm'd by mutual joinder of your hands, Arrested by the holy close of lips, Strength'ned by the interchangement of your rings, And all the ceremony of this compact Seal'd in my function, by my testimony.
William Shakespeare
An honest tale speeds best being plainly told.
William Shakespeare
Every man has business and desire, Such as it is.

William Shakespeare
More can I bear than you dare execute.
William Shakespeare
Let witchcraft join with beauty, lust with both!
William Shakespeare
Most dear actors, eat no onions nor garlic, for we are to utter sweet breath.
William Shakespeare
Taffeta phrases, silken terms precise, Three-piled hyperboles, spruce affection, Figures pedantical--these summer flies Have blown me full of maggot ostentation.

William Shakespeare
Strong reasons make strong actions let us go If you say ay, the king will not say no.
William Shakespeare
You cram these words into mine ears against The stomach of my sense.
William Shakespeare
When heaven doth weep, doth not the earth o'erflow? If the winds rage, doth not the sea wax mad, Threatening the welkin with his big-swollen face?
William Shakespeare
The rest, is silence.
William Shakespeare
Tis beauty truly blent, whose red and white Nature's own sweet and cunning hand laid on.
William Shakespeare
O, Thou hast damnable iteration and art, indeed, able to corrupt a saint.
William Shakespeare
No, no 'tis all men's office to speak patience To those that wring under the load of sorrow, But no man's virtue nor sufficiency To be so moral when he shall endure The like himself. Therefore give me no counsel: My griefs cry louder than advertisement.
William Shakespeare
If it be you that stirs these daughters' hearts Against their father, fool me not so much To bear it tamely touch me with noble anger, And let not women's weapons, water drops, Stain my man's cheeks.
William Shakespeare
