More quotes by William Shakespeare
Rumor is a pipe Blown by surmises, jealousies, conjectures.
William Shakespeare
Grief fills the room up of my absent child, Lies in his bed, walks up and down with me, Puts on his pretty look, repeats his words, Remembers me of his gracious parts, Stuffs out his vacant garments with his form
William Shakespeare
You common cry of curs! whose breath I hate As reek o' the rotten fens, whose loves I prize As the dead carcasses of unburied men That do corrupt my air, I banish you And here remain with your uncertainty!
William Shakespeare
she shall scant show well that now shows best.
William Shakespeare
You cannot make gross sins look clear: To revenge is no valour, but to bear.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
The moon shines bright. In such a night as this. When the sweet wind did gently kiss the trees and they did make no noise, in such a night.
William Shakespeare
The curse of marriage That we can call these delicate creatures ours And not their appetites!
William Shakespeare
So all my best is dressing old words new.
William Shakespeare
Have you not love enough to bear with me, when that rash humor which my mother gave me makes me forgetful.
William Shakespeare
Now is the winter of our discontent.
William Shakespeare
Time and the hour run through the roughest day.
William Shakespeare
If I may trust the flattering truth of sleep, My dreams presage some joyful news at hand. My bosom's lord sits lightly in his throne, And all this day an unaccustomed spirit Lifts me above the ground with cheerful thoughts.
William Shakespeare
And some that smile have in their hearts, I fear, millions of mischiefs.
William Shakespeare
No metal can--no, not the hangman's axe--bear half the keenness of thy sharp envy.
William Shakespeare
