More quotes by William Shakespeare
We were not born to sue, but to command.
William Shakespeare
for my grief's so great That no supporter but the huge firm earth Can hold it up: here I and sorrows sit Here is my throne, bid kings come bow to it. (Constance, from King John, Act III, scene 1)
William Shakespeare
Flower of this purple dye, Hit with Cupid's archery, Sink in apple of his eye.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
And oftentimes, to win us to our harm, The instruments of darkness tell us truths, Win us with honest trifles, to betray's In deepest consequence
William Shakespeare
For what is wedlock forced but a hell, An age of discord and continual strife? Whereas the contrary bringeth bliss, And is a pattern of celestial peace.
William Shakespeare
Discharge my followers let them hence away, From Richard's night to Bolingbrooke's fair day.
William Shakespeare
I have full cause of weeping, but this heart shall break into a hundred thousand flaws or ere I'll weep.
William Shakespeare
To hold, as 't were, the mirror up to nature.
William Shakespeare
Tis in my memory lock'd, And you yourself shall keep the key of it.
William Shakespeare
As a decrepit father takes delight To see his active child do deeds of youth, So I, made lame by fortune's dearest spite, Take all my comfort of thy worth and truth.
William Shakespeare
Unquiet meals make ill digestions.
William Shakespeare
Jesu, Jesu, the mad days that I have spent! And to see how many of my old acquaintance are dead!
William Shakespeare
Come not within the measure of my wrath.
William Shakespeare
