More quotes by William Shakespeare
Time hath not yet so dried this blood of mine, Nor age so eat up my invention, Nor fortune made such havoc of my means, Nor my bad life reft me so much of friends, But they shall find awaked in such a kind Both strength of limb and policy of mind, Ability in means, and choice of friends, To quit me of them throughly.
William Shakespeare
Let me be that I am and seek not to alter me.
William Shakespeare
Excellent wretch! Perdition catch my soul But I do love thee! and when I love thee not, Chaos is come again.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Do not for one repulse, forego the purpose That you resolved to effect.
William Shakespeare
If I were a woman I would kiss as many of you as had beards that pleased me, complexions that liked me and breaths that I defied not
William Shakespeare
Minutes, hours, days, months, and years, Pass'd over to the end they were created, Would bring white hairs unto a quiet grave. Ah, what a life were this!
William Shakespeare
So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows.
William Shakespeare
Experience teacheth that resolution is a sole help in need.
William Shakespeare
I cannot tell what you and other men Think of this life but, for my single self, I had as lief not be as live to be In awe of such a thing as I myself.
William Shakespeare
For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds Lillies that fester smell far worse than weeds.
William Shakespeare
If you prick us do we not bleed? If you tickle us do we not laugh? If you poison us do we not die? And if you wrong us shall we not revenge?
William Shakespeare
The extreme parts of time extremely forms all causes to the purpose of his speed.
William Shakespeare
Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds.
William Shakespeare
A peace is of the nature of a conquest for then both parties nobly are subdued, and neither party loser.
William Shakespeare
