Love reasons without reason.
William Shakespeare
Image
DEMETRIUS Relent, sweet Hermia: and, Lysander, yield Thy crazed title to my certain right. LYSANDER You have her father's love, Demetrius Let me have Hermia's: do you marry him.
William Shakespeare
Image
Good with out evil is like light with out darkness which in turn is like righteousness whith out hope.
William Shakespeare
Image
With these shreds They vented their complainings, which being answered And a petition granted them, a strange one, To break the heart of generosity, And make bold power look pale, they threw their caps As they would hang them on the horns o' th' moon, Shouting their emulation.
William Shakespeare
Image
But O, how bitter a thing it is to look into happiness through another man's eyes.
William Shakespeare
Image
Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting, Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
William Shakespeare
Image
You great benefactors, sprinkle our society with thankfulness. For your own gifts, make yourselves praised.
William Shakespeare
Image
If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men’s cottages princes’ palaces. It is a good divine that follows his own instructions: I can easier teach twenty what were good to be done, than be one of the twenty to follow mine own teaching.
William Shakespeare
Image
Thus is his cheek the map of days outworn.
William Shakespeare
Image
All is well ended if this suit be won. That you express content which we will pay, With strife to please you, day exceeding day.
William Shakespeare
Image
No stony bulwark can resist the love, and love dares what anyone can love.
William Shakespeare
Image
Now the good gods forbid That our renowned Rome, whose gratitude Towards her deserved children is enrolled In Jove's own book, like an unnatural dam Should now eat up her own!
William Shakespeare
Image
Farewell, fair cruelty.
William Shakespeare
Image
The pow'r that I have on you is to spare you The malice towards you to forgive you.
William Shakespeare
Image
For here, I hope, begins our lasting joy.
William Shakespeare
Image
Crowns in my purse I have, and goods at home, And so am come abroad to see the world.
William Shakespeare
Image
Lord, I could not endure a husband with a beard on his face! I had rather lie in the woolen.
William Shakespeare
Image
My love is as a fever, longing still For that which longer nurseth the disease, Feeding on that which doth preserve the ill, Th' uncertain sickly appetite to please. My reason, the physician to my love, Angry that his prescriptions are not kept, Hath left me, and I desperate now approve Desire is death, which physic did except.
William Shakespeare
Image
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more Or close the wall up with our English dead! In peace there's nothing so becomes a man As modest stillness and humility: But when the blast of war blows in our ears, Then imitate the action of the tiger.
William Shakespeare
Image
A Devil, a born Devil on whose nature, nurture can never stick, on whom my pain, humanly taken, all lost, quite lost.
William Shakespeare
