Image
ROMEO to BALTHASAR But if thou, jealous, dost return to pry In what I further shall intend to do, By heaven, I will tear thee joint by joint And strew this hungry churchyard with thy limbs: The time and my intents are savage-wild, More fierce and more inexorable far Than empty tigers or the roaring sea.
William Shakespeare
Image
At this hour Lie at my mercy all mine enemies.
William Shakespeare
Image
By Heaven, my soul is purg'd from grudging hate And with my hand I seal my true heart's love
William Shakespeare
Image
Come away, come away, death, And in sad cypres let me be laid Fly away, fly away, breath I am slain by a fair cruel maid.
William Shakespeare
Image
Two women placed together makes cold weather.
William Shakespeare
Image
Heaven is above all yet there sits a judge, That no king can corrupt.
William Shakespeare
Image
A lover goes toward his beloved as enthusiastically as a schoolboy leaving his books, but when he leaves his girlfriend, he feels as miserable as the schoolboy on his way to school. (Act 2, scene 2)
William Shakespeare
Image
A rarer spirit never Did steer humanity but you gods will give us Some faults to make us men.
William Shakespeare
Image
[S]ince brevity is the soul of wit, And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes, I will be brief.
William Shakespeare
Image
Farewell the plumed troop, and the big wars That make ambition virtue! O, farewell! Farewell the neighing steed and the shrill trump, The spirit-stirring drum, th' ear-piercing fife, The royal banner, and all quality, Pride, pomp, and circumstance of glorious war!
William Shakespeare
Image
I profess not talking: only this, Let each man do his best.
William Shakespeare
Image
Now the melancholy of God protect thee, and the tailor make thy doublet of changable taffata, for thy mind is a very opal. I would have men of such constancy put to sea, that their business might be everything, and their intent everywhere, for that's it, that always makes a good voyage of nothing.
William Shakespeare
Image
I have set my life upon a cast, And I will stand the hazard of the die.
William Shakespeare
Image
The lowest ebb is the turn of the tide. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow We are such stuff as dreams are made of.
William Shakespeare
Image
Moderate lamentation is the right of the dead, excessive grief the enemy to the living.
William Shakespeare
Image
Don't waste your love on somebody, who doesn't value it.
William Shakespeare
Image
I would fain die a dry death.
William Shakespeare
Image
The eagle suffers little birds to sing, And is not careful what they mean thereby, Knowing that with the shadow of his wings He can at pleasure stint their melody: Even so mayest thou the giddy men of Rome.
William Shakespeare
Image
Hasty marriage seldom proveth well.
William Shakespeare
Image
Give thy thoughts no tongue, nor any unproportioned thought his act. Be thou familiar but by no means vulgar.
William Shakespeare
