More quotes by William Shakespeare
Full oft we see Cold wisdom waiting on superfluous folly.
William Shakespeare
The even mead, that erst brought sweetly forth The freckled cowslip, burnet, and green clover, Wanting the scythe, all uncorrected, rank, Conceives by idleness, and nothing teems But hateful docks, rough thistles, kecksies, burrs, Losing both beauty and utility.
William Shakespeare
To be generous, guiltless, and of a free disposition is to take those things for bird-bolts that you deem cannon-bullets.
William Shakespeare
To unpathed waters, undreamed shores.
William Shakespeare
Where I could not be honest, I never yet was valiant.

William Shakespeare
Most dangerous is that temptation that doth goad us on to sin in loving virtue.
William Shakespeare
The icy precepts of respect.
William Shakespeare
Men's faults do seldom to themselves appear.
William Shakespeare
When words are scarce they are seldom spent in vain.
William Shakespeare
The sands are number'd that make up my life Here must I stay, and here my life must end.
William Shakespeare
Young Adam Cupid, he that shot so trim, When King Cophetua loved the beggar-maid!
William Shakespeare
There is some soul of goodness in things evil, Would men observingly distill it out.
William Shakespeare
