More quotes by William Shakespeare
Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore, So do our minutes hasten to their end Each changing place with that which goes before, In sequent toil all forwards do contend.
William Shakespeare
The tempter or the tempted, who sins most? Ha! Not she: nor doth she tempt: but it is I That, lying by the violet in the sun, Do as the carrion does, not as the flower, Corrupt with virtuous season.
William Shakespeare
No man's pie is freed From his ambitious finger.
William Shakespeare
But 'tis common proof, that lowliness is young ambition's ladder, whereto the climber-upward turns his face but when he once attains the upmost round, he then turns his back, looks in the clouds, scorning the vase defrees by which he did ascend.
William Shakespeare
Canst thou not minister to a mind diseased, Pluck from the memory a rooted sorrow, Raze out the written troubles of the brain
William Shakespeare
Fair ladies, masked, are roses in their bud Dismasked, the damask sweet commixture shown, Are angels vailing clouds, or roses blown.
William Shakespeare
Thou art a soul in bliss but I am bound Upon a wheel of fire that mine own tears Do scald like molten lead.
William Shakespeare
In God's name cheerly on, courageous friends, To reap the harvest of perpetual peace By this one bloody trial of sharp war.
William Shakespeare
These times of woe afford no time to woo.
William Shakespeare
Join not with grief, fair woman, do not so, To make my end too sudden.
William Shakespeare
My free drift Halts not particularly, but moves itself In a wide sea of wax no levelled malice Infects one comma in the course I hold, But flies an eagle flight, bold and forth on, Leaving no tract behind.
William Shakespeare
When our actions do not, our fears make us traitors.
William Shakespeare
Thou hast her, France let her be thine, for we Have no such daughter, nor shall ever see That face of hers again. Therefore be gone Without our grace, our love, our benison.
William Shakespeare
Tis the eye of childhood that fears a painted devil.
William Shakespeare
My wits begin to turn.
William Shakespeare
No place indeed should murder sanctuarize Revenge should have no bounds.
William Shakespeare
Thou canst not speak of what thou dost not feel.
William Shakespeare
Since my dear soul was mistress of her choice And could of men distinguish her election, Sh'ath sealed thee for herself.
William Shakespeare
Wisely, I say, I am a bachelor.
William Shakespeare
I would challenge you to a battle of wits, but I see you are unarmed!
William Shakespeare
