There's nothing in this world can make me joy: Life is as tedious as a twice-told tale Vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man And bitter shame hath spoil'd the sweet world's taste That it yields nought but shame and bitterness.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
He receives comfort like cold porridge.
William Shakespeare
The sweets we wish for, turn to loathed sours, Even in the moment that we call them ours.
William Shakespeare
Love is merely a madness and, I tell you, deserves as well a dark house and a whip as madmen do and the reason why they are not so punish'd and cured is that the lunacy is so ordinary that the whippers are in love too.
William Shakespeare
What I have done is yours what I have to do is yours being part in all I have, devoted yours.
William Shakespeare
Vaulting ambition, which o'erleaps itself And falls on the other side
William Shakespeare
While he was drunk asleep, or in his rage, or in the incestuous pleasure of his bed.
William Shakespeare
Divers philosophers hold that the lips is parcel of the mouth.
William Shakespeare
O, spirit of love, how quick and fresh art thou!
William Shakespeare
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
William Shakespeare
I had rather be a kitten and cry mew Than one of these same metre ballet-mongers.
William Shakespeare
You are not wood, you are not stones, but men.
William Shakespeare
Love thrives not in the heart that shadows dreadeth
William Shakespeare
Women's weapons, water-drops.
William Shakespeare
My love is strengthen'd, though more weak in seeming I love not less, though less the show appear: That love is merchandised whose rich esteeming The owner's tongue doth publish every where.
William Shakespeare
You must not think That we are made of stuff so fat and dull That we can let our beard be shook with danger And think it pastime.
William Shakespeare
The trust I have is in mine innocence, and therefore am I bold and resolute.
William Shakespeare
A turn or two I'll walk To still my beating mind.
William Shakespeare
But as the unthought-on accident is guilty To what we wildly do, so we profess Ourselves to be the slaves of chance, and flies Of every wind that blows.
William Shakespeare
Farewell the tranquil mind! farewell content! Farewell the plumed troops, and the big wars That make ambition virtue.
William Shakespeare
When I was at home I was in a better place
William Shakespeare
