More quotes by William Shakespeare
Tis gold Which buys admittance--oft it doth--yea, and makes Diana's rangers false themselves, yield up This deer to th' stand o' th' stealer: and 'tis gold Which makes the true man kill'd and saves the thief, Nay, sometimes hangs both thief and true man.
William Shakespeare
Come not between the dragon and his wrath.
William Shakespeare
With this special observance, that you o'erstep not the modesty of nature. for anything so overdone is from the purpose of playing, whose end, both at the first and now, was and is, to hold, as 'twere, the mirror up to nature.
William Shakespeare
In thy foul throat thou liest.
William Shakespeare
Bloody instructions, which, being taught, return to plague the inventor.
William Shakespeare
Let him smell his way to Dover!
William Shakespeare
But thought's the slave of life, and life time's fool.
William Shakespeare
Unnatural deeds Do breed unnatural troubles: infected minds To their deaf pillows will discharge their secrets.
William Shakespeare
No man's pie is freed From his ambitious finger.
William Shakespeare
As true as steel, as plantage to the moon, As sun to day, at turtle to her mate, As iron to adamant, as earth to centre.
William Shakespeare
Wise men ne'er sit and wail their woes, but presently prevent the ways to wail.
William Shakespeare
For man is a giddy thing, and this is my conclusion.
William Shakespeare
In sooth I know not why I am so sad. It wearies me, you say it wearies you But how I caught it, found it, or came by it, What stuff 'tis made of, whereof it is born, I am to learn.
William Shakespeare
I do love My country's good with a respect more tender, More holy and profound, then mine own life, My dear wife's estimate, her womb increase, And treasure of my loins.
William Shakespeare
See, what a ready tongue suspicion hath! He that but fears the thing he would not know, Hath, by instinct, knowledge from others' eyes, That what he feared is chanced.
William Shakespeare
This rough magic I here abjure and when I have required some heavenly music, which even now I do, to work mine end upon their senses that this airy charm is for, I'll break my staff, bury it certain fathoms in the earth, and deeper than did ever plummet sound, I'll drown my book.
William Shakespeare
Look on beauty, and you shall see 'tis purchased by the weight which therein works a miracle in Nature, making them lightest that wear most of it: so are those crisped snaky golden locks which make such wanton gambols with the wind upon supposed fairness, often known to be the dowry of a second head, the skull that bred them in the sepulchre.
William Shakespeare
Where hateful Death put on his ugliest mask.
William Shakespeare
Help, master, help! here's a fish hangs in the net, like a poor man's right in the law 'twill hardly come out.
William Shakespeare
But shall we wear these glories for a day? Or shall they last, and we rejoice in them?
William Shakespeare
