More quotes by William Shakespeare
That we would do We should do when we would, for this 'would' changes, And hath abatements and delays as many As there are tongues, are hands, are accidents, And then this 'should' is like a spendthrift sigh, That hurts by easing.
William Shakespeare
To take arms against a sea of troubles.
William Shakespeare
O wretched state! O bosom black as death! O limed soul that, struggling to be free, art more engaged! Help, angels! Make assay! Bow, stubborn knees! and, heart with strings of steel, be soft as sinews of the new-born babe!
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
I would give all of my fame for a pot of ale and safety.
William Shakespeare
Time, whose millioned accidents creep in betwixt vows, and change decrees of kings, tan sacred beauty, blunt the sharpest intents, divert strong minds to the course of altering things.
William Shakespeare
Alas, sir, how fell you besides your five wits? Malvolio: Fool, there was never a man so notoriously abused. I am as well in my wits, fool, as thou art. Feste: But as well? Then you are mad indeed, if you be no better in you wits than a fool.
William Shakespeare
If it were done when 'tis done, then 'twere well. It were done quickly.
William Shakespeare
When love begins to sicken and decay it uses an enforced ceremony.
William Shakespeare
You are made Rather to wonder at the things you hear Than to work any.
William Shakespeare
I have seen the day of wrong through the little hole of discretion, and I will right myself like a soldier.
William Shakespeare
