More quotes by William Shakespeare
I understand a fury in your words But not your words.
William Shakespeare
Ay me! for aught that ever I could read, could ever hear by tale or history, the course of true love never did run smooth.
William Shakespeare
Delivers in such apt and gracious words that aged ears play truant at his tales And younger hearings are quite ravished So sweet and voluble is his discourse.
William Shakespeare
The chameleon Love can feed on the air
William Shakespeare
It is the witness still of excellency to put a strange face on his own perfection.
William Shakespeare
He that hath the steerage of my course, Direct my sail.
William Shakespeare
Free from gross passion or of mirth or anger
William Shakespeare
The even mead, that erst brought sweetly forth The freckled cowslip, burnet, and green clover, Wanting the scythe, all uncorrected, rank, Conceives by idleness, and nothing teems But hateful docks, rough thistles, kecksies, burrs, Losing both beauty and utility.
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
Age, I do abhor thee, youth, I do adore thee.
William Shakespeare
Oft expectation fails, and most oft there where most it promises and oft it hits where hope is coldest, and despair most fits.
William Shakespeare
By heaven, I do love: and it hath taught me to rhyme, and to be mekancholy.
William Shakespeare
love is blind and lovers cannot see the pretty follies that themselves commit
William Shakespeare
If I profane with my unworthiest hand This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this: My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
William Shakespeare
Some smack of age in you, some relish of the saltness of time.
William Shakespeare
Ah me, how weak a thing The heart of woman is!
William Shakespeare
The seeming truth which cunning times put on to entrap the wisest.
William Shakespeare
What the vengeance, could he not speak 'em fair?
William Shakespeare
The weight of this sad time we must obey, Speak what we feel, not what we ought to say. The oldest hath borne most: we that are young Shall never see so much, nor live so long.
William Shakespeare
What many men desire--that 'many' may be meant By the fool multitude that choose by show, Not learning more than the fond eye doth teach, Which pries not to th' interior, but like the martlet Builds in the weather on the outward wall, Even in the force and road of casualty.
William Shakespeare
