More quotes by William Shakespeare
By Heaven, my soul is purg'd from grudging hate And with my hand I seal my true heart's love
William Shakespeare
With caution judge of probability. Things deemed unlikely, e'en impossible, experience oft hath proved to be true.
William Shakespeare
The tyrant custom, most grave senators, Hath made the flinty and steel couch of war My thrice-driven bed of down.
William Shakespeare
The better part of valor is discretion, in the which better part I have saved my life.
William Shakespeare
The hind that would be mated by the lion Must die for love.
William Shakespeare
We will draw the curtain and show you the picture.
William Shakespeare
Light, seeking light, doth light of light beguile
William Shakespeare
O, my offence is rank, it smells to heaven
William Shakespeare
Heaven would that she these gifts should have, and I to live and die her slave.
William Shakespeare
He hath disgrac'd me and hind'red me half a million laugh'd at my losses, mock'd at my gains, scorned my nation, thwarted my bargains, cooled my friends, heated my enemies. And what's his reason? I am a Jew.
William Shakespeare
God is our fortress, in whose conquering name Let us resolve to scale their flinty bulwarks.
William Shakespeare
O heresy in fair, fit for these days, A giving hand, though foul, shall have fair praise.
William Shakespeare
To England will I steal, and there I'll steal.
William Shakespeare
Like Patience gazing on kings' graves, and smiling Extremity out of act.
William Shakespeare
I will not trust you, I, Nor longer stay in your curst company. Your hands than mine are quicker for a fray, My legs are longer though, to run away.
William Shakespeare
Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove. O, no! It is an ever-fixed mark, That looks on tempests and is never shaken. It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
William Shakespeare
Ring the alarum-bell! Blow, wind! come, wrack! At least we'll die with harness on our back.
William Shakespeare
Too much of water hast thou, poor Ophelia, And therefore I forbid my tears: But yet It is our trick nature her custom holds, Let shame say what it will: when these are gone, The woman will be out. — Adieu, my lord! I have a speech of fire, that fain would blaze, But that this folly drowns it.
William Shakespeare
I pray you, in your letters, When you shall these unlucky deeds relate, Speak of me as I am nothing extenuate, Nor set down aught in malice. Then must you speak Of one that loved not wisely but too well Of one not easily jealous, but being wrought, Perplexed in the extreme. . .
William Shakespeare
To be slow in words is a woman's only virtue.
William Shakespeare
