William Shakespeare
ROSS You must have patience, madam. LADY MACDUFF He had none: His flight was madness: when our actions do not, Our fears do make us traitors.
William Shakespeare
Though this be madness, yet there is method in't.
William Shakespeare
Your face, my thane, is as a book where men May read strange matters. To beguile the time, Look like the time bear welcome in your eye, Your hand, your tongue: look like the innocent flower, But be the serpent under't.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
For what I will, I will, and there an end.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned.
William Shakespeare

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
Some men there are love not a gaping pig, some that are mad if they behold a cat, and others when the bagpipe sings I the nose cannot contain their urine.
William Shakespeare
On the bat’s back I do fly After summer merrily.
William Shakespeare
Vanity keeps persons in favor with themselves who are out of favor with all others.
William Shakespeare
The Foole doth thinke he is wise, but the wiseman knowes himselfe to be a Foole.
William Shakespeare
