More quotes by William Shakespeare
To offend and judge are distinct offices, And of opposed natures.
William Shakespeare
Making night hideous.
William Shakespeare
I have not slept. Between the acting of a dreadful thing And the first motion, all the interim is Like a phantasma, or a hideous dream: The Genius and the mortal instruments Are then in council and the state of man, Like to a little kingdom, suffers then The nature of an insurrection.
William Shakespeare
It is the stars, The stars above us, govern our conditions.
William Shakespeare
Thou art thy mother's glass, and she in thee Calls back the lovely April of her prime...
William Shakespeare
Love that we cannot have is the one that lasts the longest,hurts the deepest,but feels the strongest
William Shakespeare
Give obedience where 'tis truly owed.
William Shakespeare
Strong reasons make strong actions.
William Shakespeare
Now the good gods forbid That our renowned Rome, whose gratitude Towards her deserved children is enrolled In Jove's own book, like an unnatural dam Should now eat up her own!
William Shakespeare
Grim-visaged war hath smoothed his wrinkled front And now, instead of mounting barbed steeds To fright the souls of fearful adversaries, He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber To the lascivious pleasing of a lute.
William Shakespeare
Of chastity, the ornaments are chaste.
William Shakespeare
If men could be contented to be what they are, there were no fear in marriage.
William Shakespeare
Tax not so bad a voice to slander music any more than once.
William Shakespeare
My prophecy is but half his journey yet, For yonder walls, that pertly front your town, Yon towers, whose wanton tops do buss the clouds, Must kiss their own feet.
William Shakespeare
Marry, sir, they praise me and make an ass of me. Now my foes tell me plainly I am an ass so that by my foes, sir, I profit in the knowledge of myself, any by my friends I am abused so that, conclusions to be as kisses, if your four negatives make your two affirmatives, why then, the worse for my friends, and the better for my foes.
William Shakespeare
The gods are deaf to hot and peevish vows. They are polluted off'rings, more abhorred! Than spotted livers in the sacrifice.
William Shakespeare
These words are razors to my wounded heart.
William Shakespeare
A virtuous and a Christianlike conclusion-- To pray for them that have done scathe to us.
William Shakespeare
A true repentance shuns the evil itself, more than the external suffering or the shame.
William Shakespeare
Ambition, the soldier's virtue, rather makes choice of loss, than gain which darkens him.
William Shakespeare
