More quotes by William Shakespeare
Ay, but to die, and go we know not where.
William Shakespeare
Love is the greatest of dreams, yet the worst of nightmares.
William Shakespeare
See, what a ready tongue suspicion hath! He that but fears the thing he would not know, Hath, by instinct, knowledge from others' eyes, That what he feared is chanced.
William Shakespeare
Do not cast away an honest man for a villain's accusation.
William Shakespeare
However wickedness outstrips men, it has no wings to fly from God.
William Shakespeare
He that is giddy thinks the world turns round.
William Shakespeare
For night's swift dragons cut the clouds full fast, And yonder shines Aurora's harbinger At whose approach ghosts wandring here and there Troop home to church-yards.... For fear lest day should look their shames upon, They willfully exile themselves from light, And must for aye consort with black brow'd night.
William Shakespeare
Oh, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!
William Shakespeare
I pray you, in your letters, When you shall these unlucky deeds relate, Speak of me as I am nothing extenuate, Nor set down aught in malice. Then must you speak Of one that loved not wisely but too well Of one not easily jealous, but being wrought, Perplexed in the extreme. . .
William Shakespeare
A great cause of the night is lack of the sun.
William Shakespeare
Wherefore was I to this keen mockery born? When at your hands did I deserve this scorn? Is't not enough, is't not enough, young man, That I did never, no, nor never can, Deserve a sweet look from Demetrius' eye, But you must flout my insufficiency?
William Shakespeare
Here will be an old abusing of God's patience and the king's English.
William Shakespeare
I am too old to fawn upon a nurse, Too far in years to be a pupil now.
William Shakespeare
For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground, and tell sad stories of the death of kings... All murdered for within the hollow crown that rounds the mortal temples of a king, keeps Death his court... and with a little pin bores through his castle wall, and farewell king!
William Shakespeare
A right judgment draws us a profit from all things we see .
William Shakespeare
Fair thoughts and happy hours attend on you.
William Shakespeare
Spirits are not finely touched But to fine issues, nor Nature never lends The smallest scruple of her excellence But like a thrifty goddess she determines Herself the glory of a creditor,Both thanks and use.
William Shakespeare
That is honor's scorn Which challenges itself as honor's born And is not like the sire. Honors thrive When rather from our acts we them derive Than our foregoers.
William Shakespeare
O all you host of heaven! O earth! What else? And shall I couple Hell?
William Shakespeare
the time of life is short To spend that shortness basely were too long.
William Shakespeare
