More quotes by William Shakespeare
For oaths are straws, men's faiths are wafer-cakes, And hold-fast is the only dog.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
One fairer than my love? The all-seeing sun Ne'er saw her match since first the world begun.

William Shakespeare
These signs have marked me extraordinary, And all the courses of my life do show I am not in the roll of common men.
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
He shall spurn fate, scorn death, and bear His hopes 'bove wisdom, grace and fear: And you all know, security Is mortals' chiefest enemy.
William Shakespeare
Old fashions please me best I am not so nice To change true rules for odd inventions.
William Shakespeare
O heaven! were man, But constant, he were perfect.
William Shakespeare
And be these juggling friends no more believ'd, That palter with us in a double sense That keep the word of promise to our ear And break it to our hope.
William Shakespeare
Thou knowest, winter tames man, woman, and beast.
William Shakespeare
Here's that which is too weak to be a sinner, honest water, which ne'er left man i' the mire.
William Shakespeare
Presume not that I am the thing I was.
William Shakespeare
I almost die for food, and let me have it!
William Shakespeare
And my poor fool is hanged! No, no, no life! Why should a dog, a horse, a rat, have life, And thou no breath at all? Thou'lt come no more, Never, Never, Never, Never, Never! Pray you, undo this button.
William Shakespeare
The rarer action is in virtue than in vengeance.
William Shakespeare
