More quotes by William Shakespeare
O, teach me how you look, and with what art You sway the motion of Demetrius' heart.-Helena
William Shakespeare
Now the fair goddess, Fortune, Fall deep in love with thee, and her great charms Misguide thy opposers' swords!
William Shakespeare
For such things as you, I can scarce think there's any, ye're so slight.
William Shakespeare
Age, I do abhor thee, youth, I do adore thee.
William Shakespeare
Foul whisp'rings are abroad.
William Shakespeare
The most peaceable way for you, if you do take a thief, is, to let him show himself what he is and steal out of your company.
William Shakespeare
The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose. An evil soul producing holy witness Is like a villain with a smiling cheek, A goodly apple rotten at the heart. O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!
William Shakespeare
The native hue of resolution is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought and enterprises of great pitch and moment, With this regard, their currents turn awry, and lose the name of action.
William Shakespeare
The insolence of office.
William Shakespeare
Tremble, thou wretch, That hast within thee undivulged crimes Unwhipped of justice.
William Shakespeare
Neither my place, nor aught I heard of business, Hath raised me from my bed nor doth the general care Take hold on me for my particular grief Is of so floodgate and o'erbearing nature That it engluts and swallows other sorrows, And it is still itself.
William Shakespeare
Honest plain words best pierce the ear of grief.
William Shakespeare
Tired with all these for restful death I cry, As to behold desert a beggar born, And needy nothing trimmed in jollity, And purest faith unhappily forsworn.
William Shakespeare
Why, this hath not a finger's dignity.
William Shakespeare
Press not a falling man too far 'tis virtue: His faults lie open to the laws let them, Not you, correct him.
William Shakespeare
Gold--what can it not do, and undo?
William Shakespeare
A peace is of the nature of a conquest for then both parties nobly are subdued, and neither party loser.
William Shakespeare
I sat upon a promontory, And heard a mermaid, on a dolphin's back, Uttering such dulcet and harmonious breath, That the rude sea grew civil at her song And certain stars shot madly from their spheres, To hear the sea-maid's music.
William Shakespeare
My love admits no qualifying dross
William Shakespeare
Bad is the trade that must play fool to sorrow, Ang'ring itself and others.
William Shakespeare
