More quotes by William Shakespeare
Men that hazard all Do it in hope of fair advantages: A golden mind stoops not to shows of dross.
William Shakespeare
He uses his folly like a stalking-horse, and under the presentation of that he shoots his wit.
William Shakespeare
Love is a wonderful, terrible thing
William Shakespeare
Yet nor the lays of birds nor the sweet smell Of different flowers in odour and in hue Could make me any summer's story tell, Or from their proud lap pluck them where they grew Nor did I wonder at the lily's white, Nor praise the deep vermilion in the rose They were but sweet, but figures of delight, Drawn after you, you pattern of all those.
William Shakespeare
Read o'er this And after, this, and then to breakfast with What appetite you have.
William Shakespeare
Perseverance... keeps honor bright: to have done, is to hang quite out of fashion, like a rusty nail in monumental mockery.
William Shakespeare
By heaven, I do love: and it hath taught me to rhyme, and to be mekancholy.
William Shakespeare
But virtue never will be mov'd, Though lewdness court it in a shape of heaven.
William Shakespeare
Time is the king of men.
William Shakespeare
Gnarling sorrow hath less power to bite The man that mocks at it and sets it light.
William Shakespeare
As chaste as unsunned snow.
William Shakespeare
Tis a blushing shame-faced spirit that mutinies in a man's bosom. It fills a man full of obstacles. It made me once restore a purse of gold that (by chance) I found. It beggars any man that keeps it.
William Shakespeare
He that is truly dedicated to war hath no self-love
William Shakespeare
We must be brief when traitors brave the field.
William Shakespeare
Come now, what masques, what dances shall we have To wear away this long age of three hours Between our after-supper and bedtime?
William Shakespeare
Forever, and forever, farewell, Cassius! If we do meet again, why, we shall smile If not, why then this parting was well made.
William Shakespeare
Now entertain conjecture of a time When creeping murmur and the poring dark Fills the wide vessel of the universe.
William Shakespeare
Love comforteth like sunshine after rain, But Lust's effect is tempest after sun Love's gentle spring doth always fresh remain, Lust's winter comes ere summer half be done Love surfeits not, Lust like a glutton dies Love is all truth, Lust full of forged lies.
William Shakespeare
For there was never yet philosoper That could endure the toothache patiently, However they have writ the style of gods, And made a push at chance and sufferance.
William Shakespeare
Fools are not mad folks.
William Shakespeare
