More quotes by William Shakespeare
Of all the fair resort of gentlemen That every day with parle encounter me, In thy opinion which is worthiest love?
William Shakespeare
The tempter or the tempted, who sins most? Ha! Not she: nor doth she tempt: but it is I That, lying by the violet in the sun, Do as the carrion does, not as the flower, Corrupt with virtuous season.
William Shakespeare
Cold indeed, and labor lost: Then farewell heat, and welcome frost!
William Shakespeare
And so, from hour to hour, we ripe and ripe. And then, from hour to hour, we rot and rot And thereby hangs a tale.
William Shakespeare
To be furious, is to be frighted out of fear.
William Shakespeare
Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounce it to you, trippingly on the tongue but if you mouth it, as many of your players do, I had as lief the town-crier spoke my lines.
William Shakespeare
A very scurvy fellow.
William Shakespeare
The thing of courage As rous'd with rage doth sympathise, And, with an accent tun'd in self-same key, Retorts to chiding fortune.
William Shakespeare
There's many a man hath more hair than wit.
William Shakespeare
The daintiest last, to make the end most sweet.
William Shakespeare
I am not prone to weeping as our sex commonly are the want of which vain dew perchance shall dry your pities but I have that honorable grief lodged here which burns worse than tears drown.
William Shakespeare
My tongue will tell the anger of my heart, or else my heart concealing it will break.
William Shakespeare
A time, methinks, too short To make a world-without-end bargain in.
William Shakespeare
Even as one heat another heat expels, or as one nail by strength drives out another, so the remembrance of my former love is by a newer object quite forgotten.
William Shakespeare
A young man married is a man that's marred.
William Shakespeare
Then to Silvia let us sing that Silvia is excelling. She excels each mortal thing upon the dull earth dwelling.
William Shakespeare
Our rash faults Make trivial price of serious thing we have, Not knowing them until we know their grave.
William Shakespeare
Crowns have their compass-length of days their date- Triumphs their tomb-felicity, her fate- Of nought but earth can earth make us partaker, But knowledge makes a king most like his Maker.
William Shakespeare
Life is as tedious as twice-told tale, vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man.
William Shakespeare
My only love sprung from my only hate.
William Shakespeare
