More quotes by William Shakespeare
This is a way to kill a wife with kindness.
William Shakespeare
Why, I can smile and murder whiles I smile, And cry 'content' to that which grieves my heart, And wet my cheeks with artificial tears, And frame my face for all occasions
William Shakespeare
Is it possible he should know what he is, and be that he is?
William Shakespeare
When I got enough confidence, the stage was gone. When I was sure of losing, I won. When I needed people the most, they left me. When I learnt to dry my tears, I found a shoulder to cry on. And when I mastered the art of hating, somebody started loving me.
William Shakespeare
A peace is of the nature of a conquest for then both parties nobly are subdued, and neither party loser.
William Shakespeare
If music be the food of love, play on, Give me excess of it that surfeiting, The appetite may sicken, and so die.
William Shakespeare
Romans, countrymen, and lovers, hear me for my cause, and be silent, that you may hear.
William Shakespeare
Tis now the very witching time of night, when churchyards yawn and hell itself breathes out Contagion to this world.
William Shakespeare
You have too much respect upon the world They lose it that do buy it with much care
William Shakespeare
After life's fitful fever he sleeps well. Treason has done his worst. Nor steel nor poison, malice domestic, foreign levy, nothing can touch him further.
William Shakespeare
Bell, book and candle shall not drive me back, When gold and silver becks me to come on.
William Shakespeare
My pride fell with my fortunes.
William Shakespeare
My crown is in my heart, not on my head not decked with diamonds and Indian stones, nor to be seen: my crown is called content, a crown it is that seldom kings enjoy.
William Shakespeare
Tis our fast intent To shake all cares and business from our age, Conferring them on younger strengths, while we Unburdened crawl toward death.
William Shakespeare
Now the fair goddess, Fortune, Fall deep in love with thee, and her great charms Misguide thy opposers' swords!
William Shakespeare
At once, good night- Stand not upon the order of your going, But go at once.
William Shakespeare
If thou dost marry, I'll give thee this plague for thy dowry: be thou as chaste as ice, as pure as snow, thou shalt not escape calumny.
William Shakespeare
Give sorrow words the grief that does not speak knits up the o-er wrought heart and bids it break.
William Shakespeare
A whoreson jackanapes must take me up for swearing as if I borrowed mine oaths of him and might not spend them at my pleasure. When a gentleman is disposed to swear, it is not for any standers-by to curtail his oaths, ha?
William Shakespeare
Advance our standards, set upon our foes Our ancient word of courage, fair Saint George, Inspire us with the spleen of fiery dragons!
William Shakespeare
