More quotes by William Shakespeare
Therefore I tell my sorrows to the stones Who, though they cannot answer my distress, Yet in some sort they are better than the tribunes, For that they will not intercept my tale: When I do weep, they humbly at my feet Receive my tears and seem to weep with me And, were they but attired in grave weeds, Rome could afford no tribune like to these.
William Shakespeare
Heat not a furnace for your foe so hot that it do singe yourself.
William Shakespeare
As he was valiant, I honour him. But as he was ambitious, I slew him.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Either our history shall with full mouth Speak freely of our acts, or else our grave, Like Turkish mute, shall have a tongueless mouth, Not worshipped with a waxen epitaph.

William Shakespeare
In thee thy mother dies, our household's name, My death's revenge, thy youth, and England's fame.
William Shakespeare
How ill white hairs become a fool and jester!
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Alas, our frailty is the cause , not we! For, such as we are made of, such we be.
William Shakespeare
Love is my sin, and thy dear virtue hate, Hate of my sin, grounded on sinful loving.
William Shakespeare
Fishes live in the sea, as men do a-land the great ones eat up the little ones.
William Shakespeare
Make the upcoming hour overflow with joy, and let pleasure drown the brim.
William Shakespeare
That strain again! It had a dying fall: O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound That breathes upon a bank of violets, Stealing and giving odour! Enough no more: 'Tis not so sweet as it was before.
William Shakespeare
A maiden hath no tongue--but thought.
William Shakespeare
We make ourselves fools to disport ourselves And spend our flatteries to drink those men Upon whose age we void it up again With poisonous spite and envy.
William Shakespeare
Thou weigh'st thy words before thou givest them breath.
William Shakespeare
Why, then the world ’s mine oyster, Which I with sword will open.
William Shakespeare
