More quotes by William Shakespeare
Farewell, fair cruelty.
William Shakespeare
Love is a smoke rais'd with the fume of sighs being purg'd, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes being vex'd, a sea nourish'd with lovers' tears what is it else? A madness most discreet, a choking gall, and a preserving sweet.
William Shakespeare
Here feel we but the penalty of Adam, The seasons' difference, as the icy fang And churlish chiding of the winter's wind, Which, when it bites and blows upon my body, Even till I shrink with cold, I smile.
William Shakespeare
I know no ways to mince it in love, but directly to say - I love you
William Shakespeare
No metal can--no, not the hangman's axe--bear half the keenness of thy sharp envy.
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
I must have liberty Withal, as large a charter as the wind, To blow on whom I please, for so fools have.
William Shakespeare
Gentle and low, an excellent thing in woman.
William Shakespeare
O that men's ears should be To counsel deaf but not to flattery!
William Shakespeare
There are no tricks in plain and simple faith.
William Shakespeare
For now they kill me with a living death.
William Shakespeare
Love thyself last, cherish those hearts that hate thee Corruption wins not more than honesty.
William Shakespeare
As for my wife, I would you had her spirit in such another The third o' th' world is yours, which with a snaffle You may pace easy, but not such a wife.
William Shakespeare
The gods are deaf to hot and peevish vows. They are polluted off'rings, more abhorred! Than spotted livers in the sacrifice.
William Shakespeare
Where I could not be honest, I never yet was valiant.
William Shakespeare
The wound of peace is surety, Surety secure but modest doubt is called The beacon of the wise, the tent that searches To th' bottom of the worst.
William Shakespeare
Write till your ink be dry, and with your tears Moist it again, and frame some feeling line That may discover such integrity.
William Shakespeare
How poor are they that have have not patients.
William Shakespeare
A breath thou art, Servile to all the skyey influences.
William Shakespeare
The will is infinite and the execution confin'd, the desire is boundless and the act a slave to limit.
William Shakespeare
