More quotes by William Shakespeare
Love is . . . a madness most discreet
William Shakespeare
Tis much when sceptres are in children's hands, But more when envy breeds unkind division: There comes the ruin, there begins confusion.
William Shakespeare
I have ventured, Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders, This many summers in a sea of glory, But far beyond my depth. My high-blown pride At length broke under me, and now has left me, Weary and old with service, to the mercy Of a rude stream that must for ever hide me.
William Shakespeare
Their manners are more gentle, kind, than of Our human generation you shall find.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

Hereafter, in a better world than this, I shall desire more love and knowledge of you
William Shakespeare
O, a kiss Long as my exile, sweet as my revenge! Now, by the jealous queen of heaven, that kiss I carried from thee, dear, and my true lip Hath virgined it e'er since.
William Shakespeare
Love and meekness, lord, Become a churchman better than ambition: Win straying souls with modesty again, Cast none away.
William Shakespeare
A very honest woman but something given to lie
William Shakespeare
Adieu, adieu, adieu! remember me.
William Shakespeare
It is the witness still of excellency to put a strange face on his own perfection.
William Shakespeare
