More quotes by William Shakespeare
Whatever praises itself but in the deed, devours the deed in the praise.
William Shakespeare
No sooner met but they looked no sooner looked but they loved no sooner loved but they sighed no sooner sighed but they asked one another the reason no sooner knew the reason but they sought the remedy and in these degrees have they made a pair of stairs to marriage.
William Shakespeare
The wildest hath not such a heart as you. Run when you will, the story shall be changed: Apollo flies, and Daphne holds the chase The dove pursues the griffin the mild hind Makes speed to catch the tiger bootless speed, When cowardice pursues and valour flies.
William Shakespeare
It were a grief so brief to part with thee. Farewell.
William Shakespeare
Take no repulse, whatever she doth say For 'get you gone,' she doth not mean 'away.' Flatter and praise, commend, extol their graces Though ne'er so black, say they have angels' faces
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
Why, this hath not a finger's dignity.
William Shakespeare
What thing, in honor, had my father lost, That need to be revived and breathed in me?
William Shakespeare
To gild refined gold, to paint the lily... is wasteful and ridiculous excess
William Shakespeare
Grim-visaged war hath smoothed his wrinkled front And now, instead of mounting barbed steeds To fright the souls of fearful adversaries, He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber To the lascivious pleasing of a lute.
William Shakespeare
Desire of having is the sin of covetousness.
William Shakespeare
Trust not my reading, nor my observations, Which with experimental seal do warrant The tenor of my book.
William Shakespeare
Civil dissension is a viperous worm That gnaws the bowels of the commonwealth.
William Shakespeare
I pardon him, as God shall pardon me.
William Shakespeare
What a piece of work is a man
William Shakespeare
These violent delights have violent ends And in their triump die, like fire and powder Which, as they kiss, consume
William Shakespeare
When my love swears that she is made of truth, I do believe her, though I know she lies.
William Shakespeare
The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.
William Shakespeare
The weight of this sad time we must obey, Speak what we feel, not what we ought to say. The oldest hath borne most: we that are young Shall never see so much, nor live so long.
William Shakespeare
I long To hear the story of your life, which must Take the ear strangely.
William Shakespeare
