William Shakespeare
If love be blind, it best agrees with night
William Shakespeare
O gentle son, Upon the heat and flame of thy distemper, sprinkle cool patience.
William Shakespeare
Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounc'd it to you, trippingly on the tongue.
William Shakespeare
Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments: love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds.
William Shakespeare
I am now of all humors that have showed themselves humors since the old days of goodman Adam to the pupil age of this present twelve o'clock at midnight.
William Shakespeare
If thou couldst, doctor, cast The water of my land, find her disease, And purge it to a sound and pristine health, I would applaud thee to the very echo, That should applaud you again.
William Shakespeare
I have no other but a woman's reason: I think him so, because I think him so.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Waste not thy time in windy argument but let the matter drop.
William Shakespeare
We have seen better days.
William Shakespeare
Why, i' faith, methinks she's too low for a high praise, too brown for a fair praise and too little for a great praise: only this commendation I can afford her, that were she other than she is, she were unhandsome and being no other but as she is, I do not like her. (Benedick, from Much Ado About Nothing)
William Shakespeare
Shall remain! Hear you this Triton of the minnows? Mark you His absolute 'shall'?
William Shakespeare
O no, thy love though much, is not so great, It is my love that keeps mine eye awake, Mine own true love that doth my rest defeat, To play the watchman ever for thy sake. For thee watch I, whilst thou dost wake elsewhere, From me far off, with others all too near.
William Shakespeare
Fight valiantly to-day and yet I do thee wrong to mind thee of it, for thou art framed of the firm truth of valor.
William Shakespeare
Foul cankering rust the hidden treasure frets, but gold that's put to use more gold begets.
William Shakespeare
Give me a bowl of wine. I have not that alacrity of spirit Nor cheer of mind that I was wont to have.
William Shakespeare
Such tricks hath strong imagination, That, if it would but apprehend some joy, It comprehends some bringer of that joy Or in the night, imagining some fear, How easy is a bush supposed a bear!
William Shakespeare
Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long / To speak of that which gives thee all thy might?
William Shakespeare
