More quotes by William Shakespeare
Many strokes, though with a little axe, hew down and fell the hardest-timber'd oak.
William Shakespeare
If the skin were parchment and the blows you gave were ink, Your own handwriting would tell you what I think.
William Shakespeare
There's little of the melancholy element in her, my lord: she is never sad but when she sleeps and not ever sad then for I have heard my daughter say, she hath often dreamt of unhappiness, and waked herself with laughing.
William Shakespeare
Tis beauty that doth oft make women proud but, God He knows, thy share thereof is small.
William Shakespeare
You may my Glories and my State depose, But not my Griefes still am I King of those.
William Shakespeare
A right judgment draws us a profit from all things we see .
William Shakespeare
Rumour is a pipe Blown by surmises, jealousies, conjectures And of so easy and so plain a stop That the blunt monster with uncounted heads, The still-discordant wavering multitude, Can play upon it.
William Shakespeare
Beauty's a doubtful good, a glass, a flower, Lost, faded, broken, dead within an hour And beauty, blemish'd once, for ever's lost, In spite of physic, painting, pain, and cost.
William Shakespeare
Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.
William Shakespeare
We are such stuff that dreams are made of.
William Shakespeare
From you have I been absent in the spring, When proud pied April, dressed in all his trim, Hath put a spirit of youth in every thing.
William Shakespeare
Be like you thought our love would last too long, if it were chain'd together
William Shakespeare
I can get no remedy against this consumption of the purse: borrowing only lingers and lingers it out, but the disease is incurable.
William Shakespeare
Now old desire doth in his deathbed lie, And young affection gapes to be his heir That fair for which love groan'd for and would die, With tender Juliet match'd, is now not fair.
William Shakespeare
Truth will come to sight murder cannot be hid long.
William Shakespeare
I'll forbear And am fallen out with my more headier will To take the indisposed and sickly fit For the sound man.
William Shakespeare
I shall despair. There is no creature loves me And if I die no soul will pity me: And wherefore should they, since that I myself Find in myself no pity to myself?
William Shakespeare
But yet I'll make assurance double sure, and take a bond of fate: thou shalt not live.
William Shakespeare
You had measured how long a fool you were upon the ground.
William Shakespeare
Every inordinate cup is unbless'd, and the ingredient is a devil.
William Shakespeare
