More quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
For my part, if a lie may do thee grace, I'll gild it with the happiest terms I have.
William Shakespeare
O father Abram, what these Christians are, Whose own hard dealing teaches them suspect The thoughts of others!
William Shakespeare
Their understanding Begins to swell and the approaching tide Will shortly fill the reasonable shores That now lie foul and muddy.
William Shakespeare
Men at some time are masters of their fates. The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves, that we are underlings.
William Shakespeare
The glowworm shows the matin to be near And gins to pale his uneffectual fire.
William Shakespeare
