The setting sun, and the music at the close, As the last taste of sweets, is sweetest last, Writ in rememberance more than long things past.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
O teach me how I should forget to think (1.1.224)
William Shakespeare
How oft the sight of means to do ill deeds makes ill deeds done!
William Shakespeare
She marking them begins a wailing note And sings extemporally a woeful ditty How love makes young men thrall and old men dote How love is wise in folly, foolish-witty Her heavy anthem still concludes in woe, And still the choir of echoes answer so.
William Shakespeare
O heresy in fair, fit for these days, A giving hand, though foul, shall have fair praise.
William Shakespeare
See the minutes, how they run, How many make the hour full complete How many hours bring about the day How many days will finish up the year How many years a mortal man may live.
William Shakespeare
I see a woman may be made a fool, If she had not a spirit to resist.
William Shakespeare
Alas, I am a woman friendless, hopeless!
William Shakespeare
The Play's the Thing, wherein I'll catch the conscience of the King.
William Shakespeare
By medicine life may be prolonged, yet death will seize the doctor too.
William Shakespeare
My pride fell with my fortunes.
William Shakespeare
O, let my books be then the eloquence and dumb presages of my speaking breast.
William Shakespeare
Golden lads and girls all must as chimney sweepers come to dust.
William Shakespeare
Liberty plucks justice by the nose The baby beats the nurse, and quite athwart Goes all decorum.
William Shakespeare
Neither my place, nor aught I heard of business, Hath raised me from my bed nor doth the general care Take hold on me for my particular grief Is of so floodgate and o'erbearing nature That it engluts and swallows other sorrows, And it is still itself.
William Shakespeare
Therefore the moon, the governess of floods, Pale in her anger washes all the air, That rheumatic diseases do abound And through this distemperature we see The seasons alter: hoary-headed frosts Fall in the fresh lap of the crimson rose.
William Shakespeare
Tis in ourselves that we are thus or thus. Our bodies are our gardens to the which our wills are gardeners.
William Shakespeare
I am misanthropos, and hate mankind, For thy part, I do wish thou wert a dog, That I might love thee something.
William Shakespeare
Who can be wise, amazed, temperate and furious, Loyal and neutral, in a moment? No man.
William Shakespeare
In religion, What damned error but some sober brow Will bless it, and approve it with a text, Hiding the grossness with fair ornament?
William Shakespeare
'Tis not to make me jealous To say my wife is fair, feeds well, loves company, Is free of speech, sings, plays, and dances well Where virtue is, these are more virtuous.
William Shakespeare
