More quotes by William Shakespeare
Bow, stubborn knees, and, heart with strings of steel, Be soft as sinews of the new-born babe. All many be well.
William Shakespeare
Whose heart the accustom'd sight of death makes hard.
William Shakespeare
Dumb jewels often, in their silent kind, more than quick words, do move a woman's mind.
William Shakespeare
Death, a necessary end, will come when it will come
William Shakespeare
Mine honour is my life both grow in one Take honour from me, and my life is done.
William Shakespeare
Things are often spoke and seldom meant.
William Shakespeare
Before thee stands this fair Hesperides, With golden fruit, but dangerous to be touched For death-like dragons here affright thee hard.
William Shakespeare
Greatness knows itself.
William Shakespeare
Our fancies are more giddy and unfirm, more longing, wavering, sooner lost and won, than women's are.
William Shakespeare
POLONIUS: What do you read, my lord? HAMLET: Words, words, words.
William Shakespeare
Every offense is not a hate at first.
William Shakespeare
A peevish self-willed harlotry it is. *She’s a stubborn little brat.*
William Shakespeare
That you were once unkind befriends me now, And for that sorrow, which I then did feel, Needs must I under my transgression bow, Unless my nerves were brass or hammered steel.
William Shakespeare
The fewer men, the greater share of honor.
William Shakespeare
And thence from Athens turn away our eyes To seek new friends and stranger companies.
William Shakespeare
Thou hast seen a farmer's dog bark at a beggar? And the creature run from the cur. There thou mightst behold the great image of authority-a dog's obeyed in office.
William Shakespeare
Captain of our fairy band, Helena is here at hand, And the youth, mistook by me, Pleading for a lover's fee. Shall we their fond pageant see? Lord, what fools these mortals be!
William Shakespeare
That if you be honest and fair, your honesty should admit no discourse to your beauty.
William Shakespeare
What win I, if I gain the thing I seek? A dream, a breath, a froth of fleeting joy. Who buys a minute's mirth to wail a week? Or sells eternity to get a toy? For one sweet grape who will the vine destroy? Or what fond beggar, but to touch the crown, Would with the sceptre straight be strucken down?
William Shakespeare
Let fame, that all hunt after in their lives, Live regist'red upon our brazen tombs And then grace us in the disgrace of death When, spite of cormorant devouring Time, Th' endeavor of this present breath may buy That honor which shall bate his scythe's keen edge And make us heirs of all eternity.
William Shakespeare
