More quotes by William Shakespeare
Man, proud man, drest in a little brief authority, most ignorant of what he's most assur d, glassy essence, like an angry ape, plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven, as make the angels weep.
William Shakespeare
I am as true as truth's simplicity, And simpler than the infancy of truth.
William Shakespeare
So our virtues lie in the interpretation of the time
William Shakespeare
Our very eyes Are sometimes, like our judgments, blind.
William Shakespeare
Come, gentlemen, I hope we shall drink down all unkindness.
William Shakespeare
I stalk about her door, like a strange soul upon the Stygian banks staying for waftage.
William Shakespeare
I love him for his sake And yet I know him a notorious liar, Think him a great way fool, solely a coward Yet these fix'd evils sit so fit in him That they take place when virtue's steely bones Looks bleak i' th' cold wind withal, full oft we see Cold wisdom waiting on superfluous folly.
William Shakespeare
Pardon, gentles all, the flat unraised spirits that have dared on this unworthy scaffold to bring forth so great an object.
William Shakespeare
When I was at home I was in a better place
William Shakespeare
What a fool honesty is.
William Shakespeare
All of Creation’s a farce. Man was born as a joke. In his head his reason is buffeted Like wind-blown smoke. Life is a game. Everyone ridicules everyone else. But he who has the last laugh Laughs longest.
William Shakespeare
He is as full of valor as of kindness. Princely in both.
William Shakespeare
Our praises are our wages.
William Shakespeare
Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting, Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
William Shakespeare
As love is full of unbefitting strains, All wanton as a child, skipping and vain, Form'd by the eye and therefore, like the eye, Full of strange shapes, of habits and of forms, Varying in subjects as the eye doth roll To every varied object in his glance
William Shakespeare
Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible to feelings as to sight?
William Shakespeare
O Helena, goddess, nymph, perfect, divine! To what, my love, shall I compare thine eyne? Crystal is muddy. O, how ripe in show Thy lips, those kissing cherries, tempting grow!
William Shakespeare
What showers arise, blown with the windy tempest of my heart
William Shakespeare
He must needs go that the devil drives.
William Shakespeare
Women are as roses, whose fair flower, being once displayed, doth fall that very hour.
William Shakespeare
