More quotes by William Shakespeare
Live loath'd and long, Most smiling, smooth, detested parasites, Courteous destroyers, affable wolves, meek bears, You fools of fortune, trencher friends, time flies Cap and knee slaves, vapors, and minute jacks.
William Shakespeare
Give me my sin again.
William Shakespeare
Done to death by slanderous tongue

William Shakespeare
Full fathom five thy father lies
William Shakespeare
Heaven is above all yet there sits a judge, That no king can corrupt.
William Shakespeare
I have had a most rare vision. I have had a dream, past the wit of man to say what dream it was.
William Shakespeare
Hot lavender, mints, savory, marjoram The marigold, that goes to bed wi' the sun, and with him rise weeping.
William Shakespeare
Ill met by moonlight, proud Titania
William Shakespeare
Ornament is but the guiled shore to a most dangerous sea.
William Shakespeare
Full many a lady I have eyed with best regard, and many a time Th' harmony of their tongues hath into bondage Brought my too diligent ear for several virtues Have I liked several women never any With so full soul but some defect in her Did quarrel with the noblest grace she owed, And put it to the foil.
William Shakespeare
