He that sleeps feels not the tooth-ache
William Shakespeare
Give them great meals of beef and iron and steel, they will eat like wolves and fight like devils.
William Shakespeare
Even through the hollow eyes of death I spy life peering.
William Shakespeare
Since brass, nor stone, nor earth, nor boundless sea, But bad mortality o'ersways their power, How with this rage shall beauty hold a plea, Whose action is no stronger than a flower?
William Shakespeare
A great cause of the night is lack of the sun.
William Shakespeare
Miracles are ceased and therefore we must needs admit the means, how things are perfected.
William Shakespeare
Don't waste your love on somebody, who doesn't value it.

William Shakespeare
Before thee stands this fair Hesperides, With golden fruit, but dangerous to be touched For death-like dragons here affright thee hard.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
All that glisters is not gold Often have you heard that told.
William Shakespeare
But I remember now I am in this earthly world, where to do harm Is often laudable, to do good sometime Accounted dangerous folly.
William Shakespeare
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
Hopeless and helpless doth Egeon wend, But to procrastinate his liveless end.
William Shakespeare
Do all men kill the things they do not love?
William Shakespeare
Look like the innocent flower, But be the serpent under it.
William Shakespeare
There's many a man hath more hair than wit.
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
There is nothing but roguery to be found in villainous men.
William Shakespeare
