More quotes by William Shakespeare
Those that much covet are with gain so fond, For what they have not, that which they possess They scatter and unloose it from their bond, And so, by hoping more, they have but less Or, gaining more, the profit of excess Is but to surfeit, and such griefs sustain, That they prove bankrupt in this poor-rich gain.
William Shakespeare
I am not in the giving vein today.
William Shakespeare
And all my mother came into mine eyes And gave me up to tears.
William Shakespeare
Vanity keeps persons in favor with themselves who are out of favor with all others.
William Shakespeare
The bird that hath been limed in a bush, with trembling wings misdoubteth every bush.
William Shakespeare
It hurts not the tongue to give fair words.
William Shakespeare
It is certain that either wise bearing or ignorant carriage is caught as men take diseases, one of another.
William Shakespeare
I have had a most rare vision. I have had a dream, past the wit of man to say what dream it was.
William Shakespeare
Confess yourself to heaven, Repent what's past, avoid what is to come, And do not spread the compost on the weeds To make them ranker.
William Shakespeare
Let fame, that all hunt after in their lives, Live regist'red upon our brazen tombs And then grace us in the disgrace of death When, spite of cormorant devouring Time, Th' endeavor of this present breath may buy That honor which shall bate his scythe's keen edge And make us heirs of all eternity.
William Shakespeare
What's his offense? Groping for trout in a peculiar river.
William Shakespeare
Winding up days with toil and nights with sleep.
William Shakespeare
We waste our lights in vain, like lamps by day.
William Shakespeare
My endeavors Have ever come too short of my desires. Yet filed with my abilities.
William Shakespeare
If love be blind, love cannot hit the mark
William Shakespeare
Crowns have their compass-length of days their date- Triumphs their tomb-felicity, her fate- Of nought but earth can earth make us partaker, But knowledge makes a king most like his Maker.
William Shakespeare
I thank God I am not a woman, to be touched in so many giddy offences as He hath generally taxed their whole their whole sex withal.
William Shakespeare
This was the noblest Roman of them all. All the conspirators, save only he,Did that they did in envy of CaesarHe only, in a general honest thoughtAnd common good to all, made one of them. His life was gentle, and the elementsSo mixd in him that Nature might stand upAnd say to all the world, This was a man!
William Shakespeare
Weep I cannot But my heart bleeds.
William Shakespeare
Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth And delves the parallels in beauty's brow.
William Shakespeare
