More quotes by William Shakespeare
Teach not thy lip such scorn, for it was made For kissing, lady, not for such contempt.
William Shakespeare
But miserable most, to love unloved? This you should pity rather than despise
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
How sometimes nature will betray its folly, Its tenderness, and make itself a pastime To harder bosoms!
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Time, that takes survey of all the world, Must have a stop.
William Shakespeare
Say, what abridgement have you for this evening? What masque, what music? How shall we beguile The lazy time if not with some delight?
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
My liege, and madam, to expostulate What majesty should be, what duty is, Why day is day, night night, and time is time, Were nothing but to waste night, day and time. Therefore, since brevity is the soul of wit, And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes, I will be brief.
William Shakespeare
It is silliness to live when to live is torment.
William Shakespeare
May never glorious sun reflex his beams Upon the country where you make abode! But darkness and the gloomy shade of death Environ you till mischief and despair Drive you to break your necks or hang yourselves.
William Shakespeare
What stronger breastplate than a heart untainted! Thrice is he arm'd, that hath his quarrel just.
William Shakespeare
A turn or two I'll walk To still my beating mind.
William Shakespeare
Be as thou wast wont to be. See as thou wast wont to see.
William Shakespeare
For he was likely, had he been put on, to have proved most royally.
William Shakespeare
O Ceremony, show me but thy worth? What is thy soul of adoration? Art thou aught else but place, degree, and form, Creating awe and fear in other men?
William Shakespeare
Had it pleas'd heaven To try me with affliction * * * I should have found in some place of my soul A drop of patience.
William Shakespeare
ROSENCRANTZ My lord, you must tell us where the body is, and go with us to the king. HAMLET The body is with the king, but the king is not with the body. The king is a thing - GUILDENSTERN A thing my lord? HAMLET Of nothing. Bring me to him. Hide fox, and all after!
William Shakespeare
