More quotes by William Shakespeare
The smallest worm will turn being trodden on, And doves will peck in safeguard of their brood.
William Shakespeare
What's past and what's to come is strew'd with husks And formless ruin of oblivion.
William Shakespeare
By being seldom seen, I could not stir But like a comet I was wondered at.
William Shakespeare
But I will be, A bridegroom in my death, and run into't As to a lover's bed.
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
Ay, but to die and go we know not where To lie in cold obstrution and to rot This sensible warm motion to become A kneaded clod and the delighted spirit To bathe in fiery floods or to reside In thrilling regions of thick-ribbed ice To be imprison'd in the viewless winds, And blown with restless violence round about The pendant world.
William Shakespeare
Few love to hear the sins they love to act.
William Shakespeare
O heresy in fair, fit for these days, A giving hand, though foul, shall have fair praise.
William Shakespeare
All lovers swear more performance than they are able, and yet reserve an ability that they never perform vowing more than the perfection of ten, and discharging less than the tenth part of one.
William Shakespeare
When Death doth close his tender dying eyes.
William Shakespeare
If your mind dislike anything obey it
William Shakespeare
Love moderately long love doth so too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
William Shakespeare
There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
William Shakespeare
If it be honor in your wars to seem The same you are not,--which, for your best ends, You adopt your policy--how is it less or worse, That it shall hold companionship in peace With honour, as in war: since that to both It stands in like request?
William Shakespeare
Love is not love that alters when it alteration finds.
William Shakespeare
Though she be but little, she is fierce!
William Shakespeare
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more Or close the wall up with our English dead! In peace there's nothing so becomes a man As modest stillness and humility: But when the blast of war blows in our ears, Then imitate the action of the tiger.
William Shakespeare
He hath not eat paper, as it were he hath not drunk ink his intellect is not replenished he is only an animal, only sensible in the duller parts. (Shakespeare, Love's Labor's Lost, IV)
William Shakespeare
The very substance of the ambitious is merely the shadow of a dream.
William Shakespeare
But men are men the best sometimes forget.
William Shakespeare
