More quotes by William Shakespeare
Prophet may you be! If I be false, or swerve a hair from truth, when time is old and hath forgot itself, when waterdrops have worn the stones of Troy, and blind oblivion swallowed cities up, and mighty states characterless are grated to dusty nothing, yet let memory, from false to false, among false maids in love, upbraid my falsehood!
William Shakespeare
You take my house when you do take the prop That doth sustain my house you take my life When you do take the means whereby I live.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
O, pardon me, thou bleeding piece of earth, / That I am meek and gentle with these butchers!
William Shakespeare
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.
William Shakespeare
Hang him, swaggering rascal!
William Shakespeare
Why are our bodies soft, and weak, and smooth But that our soft conditions and our hearts Should well agree with our external parts?
William Shakespeare
More matter with less art.
William Shakespeare
That which in mean men we entitle patience is pale cold cowardice in noble breasts.
William Shakespeare
I thought my heart had been wounded with the claws of a lion.
