More quotes by William Shakespeare
Merrily, merrily shall I live now, Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
William Shakespeare
I pray thee cease thy counsel, Which falls into mine ears as profitless as water in a sieve.
William Shakespeare
Ingratitude is monstrous.
William Shakespeare
All that glitters is not gold.
William Shakespeare
Well, God's above all and there be souls must be saved, and there be souls must not be saved.
William Shakespeare
A man may see how this world goes with no eyes. Look with thine ears: see how yond justice rails upon yon simple thief. Hark, in thine ear: change places and, handy-dandy, which is the justice, which is the thief?
William Shakespeare
We cannot all be masters.
William Shakespeare
Their savage eyes turned to a modest gaze by the sweet power of music.
William Shakespeare
Fondling,' she saith, 'since I have hemm'd thee here Within the circuit of this ivory pale, I'll be a park, and thou shalt be my deer Feed where thou wilt, on mountain or in dale: Graze on my lips, and if those hills be dry, Stray lower, where the pleasant fountains lie.
William Shakespeare
While we lie tumbling in the hay.
William Shakespeare
There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
William Shakespeare
He that dies this year is quit for the next.
William Shakespeare
A pox o’ your throat, you bawling, blasphemous, incharitable dog!
William Shakespeare
When workmen strive to do better than well, they do confound their skill in covetousness.
William Shakespeare
Shorten my days thou canst with sullen sorrow, And pluck nights from me, but not lend a morrow Thou canst help time to furrow me with age, But stop no wrinkle in his pilgrimage.
William Shakespeare
What, no more ceremony? See, my women! Against the blown rose may they stop their nose That kneel'd unto the buds.
William Shakespeare
Simply the thing that I am shall make me live.
William Shakespeare
Thy tongue Makes Welsh as sweet as ditties highly penn'd, Sung by a fair queen in a summer's bower, With ravishing division, to her lute.
William Shakespeare
O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love... 'Tis but thy name that is my enemy What's in a name? that which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet.
William Shakespeare
Laughing faces do not mean that there is absence of sorrow! But it means that they have the ability to deal with it
William Shakespeare
