More quotes by William Shakespeare
Many a good hanging prevents a bad marriage.
William Shakespeare
Because I cannot flatter and look fair, Smile in men's faces, smooth, deceive, and cog, Duck with French nods and apish courtesy, I must be held a rancorous enemy.
William Shakespeare
If he be so resolved, I can o'ersway him for he loves to hear That unicorns may be betrayed with trees And bears with glasses, elephants with holes, Lions with toils, and men with flatterers
William Shakespeare
Lord, what fools these mortals be!
William Shakespeare
Ambition's debt is paid.
William Shakespeare
Farewell! thou art too dear for my possessing.
William Shakespeare
It provokes the desire but it takes away the performance. Therefore much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him and it mars him it sets him on and it takes him off.
William Shakespeare
I loved Ophelia. Forty thousand brothers could not, with all their quantity of love, make up my sum.
William Shakespeare
The soul of this man is his clothes.
William Shakespeare
Though music oft hath such a charm to make bad good, and good provoke to harm.
William Shakespeare
For I have neither wit, nor words, nor worth, Action, nor utterance, nor the power of speech, To stir men's blood: I only speak right on I tell you that which you yourselves do know.
William Shakespeare
What to ourselves in passion we propose, The passion ending, doth the purpose lose.
William Shakespeare
I have pursued her, as love hath pursued me
William Shakespeare
Take heed, dear heart, of this large privilege The hardest knife ill-used doth lose his edge.
William Shakespeare
I'll give my jewels for a set of beads, My gorgeous palace for a hermitage, My gay apparel for an almsman's gown, My figured goblets for a dish of wood, My scepter for a palmer's walking staff My subjects for a pair of carved saints and my large kingdom for a little grave.
William Shakespeare
Will Fortune never come with both hands full, But write her fair words still in foulest terms?
William Shakespeare
If music be the food of love, play on.
William Shakespeare
A hand as fruitful as the land that feeds us His dew falls everywhere.
William Shakespeare
Not an angel of the air, Bird melodious or bird fair, Be absent hence!
William Shakespeare
Opinion's but a fool, that makes us scan The outward habit by the inward man.
William Shakespeare
