William Shakespeare
The Play's the Thing, wherein I'll catch the conscience of the King.
William Shakespeare
That is the way to lay the city flat, To bring the roof to the foundation, And bury all, which yet distinctly ranges, In heaps and piles of ruin.
William Shakespeare
They told me I was everything. 'Tis a lie, I am not ague-proof.
William Shakespeare
Bring me a constant woman to her husband, One that ne'er dream'd a joy beyond his pleasure, And to that woman, when she has done most, Yet will I add an honour-a great patience.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
But earthlier happy is the rose distill'd Than that which withering on the virgin thorn Grows, lives, and dies in single blessedness.

Their understanding Begins to swell and the approaching tide Will shortly fill the reasonable shores That now lie foul and muddy.
William Shakespeare
While he was drunk asleep, or in his rage, or in the incestuous pleasure of his bed.

Waste not thy time in windy argument but let the matter drop.
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
In sooth I know not why I am so sad. It wearies me, you say it wearies you But how I caught it, found it, or came by it, What stuff 'tis made of, whereof it is born, I am to learn.
William Shakespeare
O, let him pass. He hates him That would upon the rack of this tough world Stretch him out longer.
William Shakespeare
Yet this my comfort: when your words are done, My woes end likewise with the evening sun.
William Shakespeare
Tis gold Which buys admittance--oft it doth--yea, and makes Diana's rangers false themselves, yield up This deer to th' stand o' th' stealer: and 'tis gold Which makes the true man kill'd and saves the thief, Nay, sometimes hangs both thief and true man.
William Shakespeare
Till all grace be in one woman, one woman shall not come in my grace.
William Shakespeare
O, spirit of love, how quick and fresh art thou!
William Shakespeare
This is the short and the long of it.
William Shakespeare
What man dare, I dare. Approach thou like the rugged Russian bear, The armed rhinoceros, or th' Hyrcan tiger Take any shape but that, and my firm nerves Shall never tremble.
William Shakespeare
The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.
William Shakespeare
