More quotes by William Shakespeare
Be merry, and employ your chiefest thoughts To courtship and such fair ostents of love As shall conveniently become you there.
William Shakespeare
Some sins do bear their privilege on earth, And so doth yours: your fault was not your folly Needs must you lay your heart at his dispose, Subjected tribute to commanding love, Against whose fury and unmatched force The aweless lion could not wage the fight Nor keep his princely heart from Richard's hand.
William Shakespeare
I am very proud, revengeful, ambitious, with more offences at my beck than I have thoughts to put them in, imagination to give them shape, or time to act them in.
William Shakespeare
Good counselors lack no clients.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
The patient must minister to himself
William Shakespeare
Life's uncertain voyage.
William Shakespeare
Shall we upon the footing of our land Send fair-play orders, and make compromise, Insinuation, parley, and base truce, To arms invasive?
William Shakespeare
We must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
William Shakespeare
Give me that man that is not passion's slave, and I will wear him in my heart's core, in my heart of heart, as I do thee.
William Shakespeare
There lives within the very flame of love A kind of wick or snuff that will abate it.
William Shakespeare
Scarce can I speak, my choler is so great. Oh! I could hew up rocks, and fight with flint.
William Shakespeare
