William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
If after every tempest come such calms, May the winds blow till they have waken'd death!
William Shakespeare
My hounds are bred out of the Spartan kind So flew'd, so sanded their heads are hung with ears that sweep away the morning dew.
William Shakespeare
Though I am not naturally honest, I am sometimes so by chance.
William Shakespeare
You have but mistook me all the while... I live by bread like you, taste grief, feel want, need friends. Conditioned thus how can you call me king?
William Shakespeare
There is a tide in the affairs of men
William Shakespeare
The best quarrels, in the heat, are cursed by those that feel their sharpness.
William Shakespeare
We do pray for mercy, and that same prayer doth teach us all to render the deeds of mercy.
William Shakespeare
Faint heart never won fair maid.
William Shakespeare
I am sure, Though you can guess what temperance should be, You know not what it is.
William Shakespeare
Those that are good manners at the court are as ridiculous in the country, as the behavior of the country is most mockable at the court.
William Shakespeare
