More quotes by William Shakespeare
As many arrows, loosed several ways, come to one mark...so many a thousand actions, once afoot, end in one purpose.
William Shakespeare
That but this blow Might be the be-all and the end-all here, But here, upon this bank and shoal of time, We'ld jump the life to come.
William Shakespeare
Earth-treading stars that make dark heaven light
William Shakespeare
The eye sees all, but the mind shows us what we want to see.
William Shakespeare
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing end them?
William Shakespeare
Nature hath meal and bran, contempt and grace.
William Shakespeare
I may neither choose who I would, nor refuse who I dislike so is the will of a living daughter curbed by the will of a dead father.
William Shakespeare
Now the melancholy of God protect thee, and the tailor make thy doublet of changable taffata, for thy mind is a very opal. I would have men of such constancy put to sea, that their business might be everything, and their intent everywhere, for that's it, that always makes a good voyage of nothing.
William Shakespeare
As there comes light from heaven and words from breath, As there is sense in truth and truth in virtue
William Shakespeare
No stony bulwark can resist the love, and love dares what anyone can love.
William Shakespeare
Full fathom five thy father lies Of his bones are coral made Those are pearls that were his eyes Nothing of him that doth fade, But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange. Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell: Ding-dong. Hark! now I hear them — Ding-dong, bell.
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
Which means she to deceive, father or mother?
William Shakespeare
So our virtues lie in the interpretation of the time
William Shakespeare
...an old man is twice a child.
William Shakespeare
Is there no respect of place, persons, nor time in you?
William Shakespeare
Then know, that I have little wealth to lose. A man I am, crossed with adversity My riches are these poor habiliments, Of which if you should here disfurnish me, You take the sum and substance that I have.
William Shakespeare
The fittest time to corrupt a man's wife is when she's fallen out with her husband.
William Shakespeare
Too nice, and yet too true!
William Shakespeare
Season your admiration for a while.
William Shakespeare
