More quotes by William Shakespeare
A good leg will fall a straight back will stoop a black beard will turn white a curl'd pate will grow bald a fair face will wither a full eye will wax hollow: but a good heart, Kate, is the sun and the moon or, rather, the sun, and not the moon, — for it shines bright, and never changes, but keeps his course truly.
William Shakespeare
Why, i' faith, methinks she's too low for a high praise, too brown for a fair praise and too little for a great praise: only this commendation I can afford her, that were she other than she is, she were unhandsome and being no other but as she is, I do not like her. (Benedick, from Much Ado About Nothing)
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Nature hath meal and bran, contempt and grace.
William Shakespeare
What man dare, I dare. Approach thou like the rugged Russian bear, The armed rhinoceros, or th' Hyrcan tiger Take any shape but that, and my firm nerves Shall never tremble.

Patch up thine old body for heaven.
William Shakespeare
Rumour doth double, like the voice and echo, The numbers of the feared.
William Shakespeare
With mirth in funeral and with dirge in marriage.
William Shakespeare
Mine honor is my life, both grow in one. Take honor from me, and my life is done. Then, dear my liege, mine honor let me try In that I live, and for that I will die.
William Shakespeare
Good morrow, 'tis Saint Valentine's Day, All in the morn betime, And I a maid at your window, To be your valentine.
William Shakespeare
Let the galled jade wince our withers are unwrung.
William Shakespeare
By the apostle Paul, shadows tonight Have struck more terror to the soul of Richard Than can the substance of ten thousand soldiers.
William Shakespeare
This thing of darkness I acknowlege mine. There is nothing more confining than the prison we don't know we are in.
William Shakespeare
O sleep! O gentle sleep! Nature's soft nurse.
William Shakespeare
Will you walk out of the air, my lord? HAMLET Into my grave.
William Shakespeare
A tardiness in nature, Which often leaves the history unspoke, That it intends to do.
William Shakespeare
