More quotes by William Shakespeare
Go hang yourself, you naughty mocking uncle!
William Shakespeare
A violet in the youth of primy nature, Forward, not permanent--sweet, not lasting The perfume and suppliance of a minute No more.
William Shakespeare
If it be true that good wine needs no bush, 'tis true that a good play needs no epilogue.
William Shakespeare
There is thy gold, worse poison to men's souls, Doing more murder in this loathsome world, Than these poor compounds that thou mayst not sell.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
I pray you bear me henceforth from the noise and rumour of the field, where I may think the remnant of my thoughts in peace, and part of this body and my soul with contemplation and devout desires.
William Shakespeare
Lords, I protest my soul is full of woe That blood should sprinkle me to make me grow. Come, mourn with me for what I do lament, And put sullen black incontinent. I'll make a voyage to the Holy Land To wash this blood off from my guilty hand. March sadly after. Grace my mournings here In weeping after this untimely bier.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
I had rather be a kitten and cry mew Than one of these same metre ballet-mongers.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Did he so often lodge in open field, In winter's cold and summer's parching heat, To conquer France, his true inheritance?
William Shakespeare
The cunning livery of hell.
William Shakespeare
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May.
William Shakespeare
O, when she's angry, she is keen and shrewd! She was a vixen when she went to school And though she be but little, she is fierce.
William Shakespeare
Love is begun by time and time qualifies the spark and fire of it.
William Shakespeare
Nay, we must think men are not gods, Nor of them look for such observancy As fits the bridal.
William Shakespeare
Thou shalt be free As mountain winds: but then exactly do All points of my command.
William Shakespeare
Lords, knights and gentlemen, what I should say My tears gainsay for every word I speak, Ye see I drink the water of my eye.
William Shakespeare
