More quotes by William Shakespeare
This sleep is sound indeed this is a sleep That from this golden rigol hath divorc'd So many English kings.
William Shakespeare
To me, fair friend, you never can be old, For as you were when first your eye I ey'd, Such seems your beauty still.
William Shakespeare
And his unkindness may defeat my life, But never taint my love.
William Shakespeare
If reasons were as plentiful as blackberries, I would give no man a reason upon compulsion.
William Shakespeare
What man dare, I dare. Approach thou like the rugged Russian bear, The armed rhinoceros, or th' Hyrcan tiger Take any shape but that, and my firm nerves Shall never tremble.
William Shakespeare
Thus can the demigod Authority Make us pay down for our offense by weight The words of heaven on whom it will, it will, On whom it will not, so: yet still 'tis just.
William Shakespeare
Have you not heard it said full oft, A woman's nay doth stand for naught?
William Shakespeare
To this urn let those repair That are either true or fair For these dead birds sigh a prayer.
William Shakespeare
I swear again, I would not be a queen For all the world.
William Shakespeare
Let us be Diana's foresters, gentlemen of the shade, minions of the moon
William Shakespeare
Look on beauty, and you shall see 'tis purchased by the weight which therein works a miracle in Nature, making them lightest that wear most of it: so are those crisped snaky golden locks which make such wanton gambols with the wind upon supposed fairness, often known to be the dowry of a second head, the skull that bred them in the sepulchre.
William Shakespeare
All pity choked with custom of fell deeds.
William Shakespeare
Hadst thou no poison mixed, no sharp-ground knife, No sudden mean of death, though ne'er so mean, But 'banished' to kill me--'banished'? O friar, the damned use that word in hell Howling attends it! How hast thou the heart, Being a divine, a ghostly confessor, A sin-absolver, and my friend professed, To mangle me with that word 'banished'?
William Shakespeare
I understand thy kisses, and thou mine, And that's a feeling disputation.
William Shakespeare
She is mine own, And I as rich in having such a jewel As twenty seas, if all their sand were pearl, The water nectar, and the rocks pure gold.
William Shakespeare
Canst thou, O partial sleep, give thy repose to the wet sea-boy in an hour so rude, and in the calmest and most stillest night, with all appliances and means to boot, deny it to a king?
William Shakespeare
Do not speak like a death's-head, do not bid me remember mine end.
William Shakespeare
Do not banish reason for inequality but let your reason serve to make the truth appear where it seems hid, and hide the false seems true.
William Shakespeare
Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs.
William Shakespeare
Flesh and blood, You, brother mine, that entertain'd ambition, Expell'd remorse and nature, who, with Sebastian- Whose inward pinches therefore are most strong- Would here have kill'd your king, I do forgive thee, Unnatural though thou art.
William Shakespeare
