William Shakespeare
Hadst thou no poison mixed, no sharp-ground knife, No sudden mean of death, though ne'er so mean, But 'banished' to kill me--'banished'? O friar, the damned use that word in hell Howling attends it!

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
I am a Jew: Hath not a Jew eyes? hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? fed with die same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer, as a Christian is?
William Shakespeare
Preferred three hours quicker over one moment late.
William Shakespeare
You peasant swain! You whoreson malt-horse drudge!
William Shakespeare
Hardness ever of hardness is mother.
William Shakespeare
Beauty within itself should not be wasted.
William Shakespeare
Never durst poet touch a pen to write Until his ink were temper'd with Love's sighs.
William Shakespeare
Your face, my thane, is as a book where men May read strange matters. To beguile the time, Look like the time bear welcome in your eye, Your hand, your tongue: look like the innocent flower, But be the serpent under't.
William Shakespeare
