More quotes by William Shakespeare
Hear me profess sincerely: had I a dozen sons, each in my love alike, and none less dear than thine and my good Marcius, I had rather have eleven die nobly for their country than one voluptuously surfeit out of action.
William Shakespeare
If it be honor in your wars to seem The same you are not,--which, for your best ends, You adopt your policy--how is it less or worse, That it shall hold companionship in peace With honour, as in war: since that to both It stands in like request?
William Shakespeare
Be stirring as the time be fire with fire. Threaten the threat'ner, and outface the brow Of bragging horror. So shall inferior eyes, That borrow their behaviors from the great, Grow great by your example and put on The dauntless spirit of resolution.
William Shakespeare
Thou seest we are not all alone unhappy: This wide and universal theatre Presents more woeful pageants than the scene Wherein we play in.
William Shakespeare
Ay beauty's princely majesty is such, Confounds the tongue and makes the senses rough.
William Shakespeare
He that is thy friend indeed, he will help you in your need.
William Shakespeare
Will you walk out of the air, my lord? HAMLET Into my grave.
William Shakespeare
I am not in the giving vein today.
William Shakespeare
Let me have men about me that are fat... Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look. He thinks too much: such men are dangerous.
William Shakespeare
Not from the stars do I my judgement pluck, And yet methinks I have astronomy. But not to tell of good or evil luck, Of plagues, of dearths, or season's quality Nor can I fortune to brief minutes tell ... Or say with princes if it shall go well.
William Shakespeare
A scar nobly got is a good livery of honor.
William Shakespeare
Ask God for temp'rance. That's th' appliance only Which your disease requires.
William Shakespeare
Proper deformity shows not in the fiend So horrid as in woman.
William Shakespeare
God's will! my liege, would you and I alone, Without more help, could fight this royal battle!
William Shakespeare
You are not worth another word, else I'd call you knave.
William Shakespeare
The very instant I saw you, did My heart fly to your service there resides To make me slave to it. ...mine unworthiness, that dare not offer What I desire to give, and much less take What I shall die to want.
William Shakespeare
Making night hideous.
William Shakespeare
Foul deeds will rise, Though all the earth o'erwhelm them, to men's eyes.
William Shakespeare
When holy and devout religious men are at their beads, 'tis hard to draw them thence so sweet is zealous contemplation.
William Shakespeare
She speaks poniards, and every word stabs: if her breath were as terrible as her terminations, there were no living near her she would infect to the north star. I would not marry her, though she were endowed with all that Adam bad left him before he transgressed.
