More quotes by 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
My dull brain was wrought with things forgotten.
William Shakespeare
Can one desire too much of a good thing?
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
A jest's prosperity lies in the ear
William Shakespeare
Now stand you on the top of happy hours, And many maiden gardens yet unset, With virtuous wish would bear you living flowers, Much liker than your painted counterfeit: So should the lines of life that life repair Which this, Time's pencil, or my pupil pen Neither in inward worth nor outward fair Can make you live your self in eyes of men.
William Shakespeare
He hath eaten me out of house and home.
William Shakespeare
Time shall unfold what plaited cunning hides: Who cover faults, at last shame them derides.
William Shakespeare
To be furious, is to be frighted out of fear.
William Shakespeare
A man cannot make him laugh but that's no marvel he drinks no wine.... If I had a thousand sons, the first human principle I would teach them should be, to forswear thin potations and to addict themselves to sack.
William Shakespeare
The seasons alter: hoary-headed frosts Fall in the fresh lap of the crimson rose.
William Shakespeare
One man in his time plays many parts.
William Shakespeare
Lady, with me, with me thy fortune lies.
William Shakespeare
If I can catch him once upon the hip, I will feed fat the ancient grudge I bear him.
William Shakespeare
And to the English court assemble now, From every region, apes of idleness!
William Shakespeare
He that is thy friend indeed, He will help thee in thy need: If thou sorrow, he will weep If thou wake, he cannot sleep: Thus of every grief in heart He with thee does bear a part. These are certain signs to know Faithful friend from flattering foe.
William Shakespeare
I feel within me a peace above all earthly dignities, a still and quiet conscience.
William Shakespeare
I am but mad north-north-west. When the wind is southerly, I know a hawk from a handsaw.
William Shakespeare
Too nice, and yet too true!
William Shakespeare
Tis often seen Adoption strives with nature and choice breeds A native slip to us from foreign lands.
William Shakespeare
