More quotes by William Shakespeare
What, shall one of us, That struck for the foremost man of all this world But for supporting robbers--shall we now Contaminate our fingers with base bribes, And sell the mighty space of our large honors For so much trash as may be grasped thus?
William Shakespeare
Then will I raise aloft the milk-white rose. For whose sweet smell the air shall be perfumed.
William Shakespeare
No deeper wrinkles yet? Hath sorrow struck So many blows upon this face of mine And made no deeper wounds?
William Shakespeare
I do repent but heaven hath pleas'd it so To punish me with this, and this with me, That I must be their scourge and minister. I will bestow him, and will answer well The death I gave him. So again good night. I must be cruel only to be kind. Thus bad begins and worse remains behind.
William Shakespeare
Those friends thou hast, and their adoption tried, Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel But do not dull thy palm with entertainment Of each new-hatch'd, unfledg'd comrade.
William Shakespeare
Well, while I live I'll fear no other thing So sore as keeping safe Nerissa's ring.
William Shakespeare
A miracle. Here's our own hands against our hearts. Come, I will have thee, but by this light I take thee for pity. Beatrice: I would not deny you, but by this good day, I yield upon great persuasion, and partly to save your life, for I was told you were in a consumption. Benedick: Peace. I will stop your mouth.
William Shakespeare
I am a foe to tyrants, and my country's friend.

William Shakespeare
I have seen roses damask'd, red and white, But no such roses see I in her cheeks.
William Shakespeare
For there's no motion That tends to vice in man, but I affirm It is the woman's part.
William Shakespeare
Prophet may you be! If I be false, or swerve a hair from truth, when time is old and hath forgot itself, when waterdrops have worn the stones of Troy, and blind oblivion swallowed cities up, and mighty states characterless are grated to dusty nothing, yet let memory, from false to false, among false maids in love, upbraid my falsehood!
William Shakespeare
Never anger made good guard for itself.
William Shakespeare
We bring forth weeds when our quick minds lie still.
William Shakespeare
The time is out of joint : O cursed spite, that ever I was born to set it right!
William Shakespeare
He must needs go that the devil drives.
William Shakespeare
What a piece of work is a man
William Shakespeare
Come now, what masques, what dances shall we have To wear away this long age of three hours Between our after-supper and bedtime?
William Shakespeare
Sweets with sweets war not, joy delights in joy.
William Shakespeare
Good name in man and woman is the immediate jewel of their souls.
William Shakespeare
