More quotes by William Shakespeare
Things base and vile, holding no quantity, love can transpose to form and dignity
William Shakespeare
O, speak again, bright angel! for thou art As glorious to this night, being o'er my head As is a winged messenger of heaven
William Shakespeare
These are the forgeries of jealousy And never, since the middle summer's spring, Met we on hill, in dale, forest, or mead, By paved fountain or by rushy brook, Or in the beached margent of the sea, To dance our ringlets to the whistling wind, But with thy brawls thou hast disturbed our sport.
William Shakespeare
Ere I could make thee open thy white hand, and clap thyself my love then didst thou utter, I am your's for ever!
William Shakespeare
The Hebrew will turn Christian he grows kind.
William Shakespeare
She speaks poniards, and every word stabs: if her breath were as terrible as her terminations, there were no living near her she would infect to the north star. I would not marry her, though she were endowed with all that Adam bad left him before he transgressed.
William Shakespeare
Mind your speech a little lest you should mar your fortunes.
William Shakespeare
And oftentimes excusing of a fault doth make the fault the worse by the excuse.
William Shakespeare
The seasons change their manners, as the year Had found some months asleep and leapt them over.
William Shakespeare
Good counselors lack no clients.
William Shakespeare
Fear no more the heat o' th' sun Nor the furious winters' rages Thou thy worldly task hast done, Home art gone, and ta'en thy wages. Golden lads and girls all must, As chimney-sweepers, come to dust.
William Shakespeare
The king-becoming graces, As justice, verity, temp'rance, stableness, Bounty, perseverance, mercy, lowliness, Devotion, patience, courage, fortitude, I have no relish of them, but abound In the division of each several crime, Acting in many ways.
William Shakespeare
If thou engrossest all the griefs are thine, Thou robb'st me of a moiety.
William Shakespeare
It is a good divine that follows his own instructions.
William Shakespeare
Bell, book and candle shall not drive me back, When gold and silver becks me to come on.
William Shakespeare
Know more than other. Work more than other. Expect less than other
William Shakespeare
Unbidden guests Are often welcomest when they are gone.
William Shakespeare
O that my tongue were in the thunder's mouth! Then with passion would I shake the world.
William Shakespeare
The tartness of his face sours ripe grapes.
William Shakespeare
My love admits no qualifying dross
William Shakespeare
