Such an act That blurs the grace and blush of modesty Calls virtue hypocrite takes off the rose From the fair forehead of an innocent love, And sets a blister there makes marriage vows As false as dicers' oaths.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
Great griefs medicine the less.
William Shakespeare
When I have plucked the rose, I cannot give it vital growth again, It needs must wither. I'll smell it on the tree.
William Shakespeare
So they loved as love in twain Had the essence but in one Two distinct, divisions none.
William Shakespeare
The silence often of pure innocence persuades when speaking fails.
William Shakespeare
Small to greater matters must give way.
William Shakespeare
You, and your lady, Take from my heart all thankfulness!
William Shakespeare
Say as you think and speak it from your souls.
William Shakespeare
I have supped full with horrors.
William Shakespeare
For as a surfeit of the sweetest things The deepest loathing to the stomach brings, Or as tie heresies that men do leave Are hated most of those they did deceive, So thou, my surfeit and my heresy, Of all be hated, but the most of me!
William Shakespeare
I'll be at charges for a looking-glass And entertain a score or two of tailors To study fashions to adorn my body: Since I am crept in favor with myself, I will maintain it with some little cost.
William Shakespeare
Our enemies are our outward consciences.
William Shakespeare
Beware Of entrance to a quarrel but being in, Bear't that the opposed may beware of thee. Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgment. Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, But not express'd in fancy rich, not gaudy For the apparel oft proclaims the man.
William Shakespeare
A fool's bolt is soon shot.
William Shakespeare
I must be cruel only to be kind Thus bad begins, and worse remains behind.
William Shakespeare
Present fears are less than horrible imaginings.
William Shakespeare
Miracles are ceased and therefore we must needs admit the means, how things are perfected.
William Shakespeare
...too much sadness hath congealed your blood,And melancholy is the nurse of frenzy.
William Shakespeare
Hal, if I tell thee a lie, spit in my face, call me horse.
William Shakespeare
Do you see yonder cloud that’s almost in shape of a camel? Polonius: By the mass, and ‘tis like a camel, indeed. Hamlet: Methinks it is like a weasel. Polonius: It is backed like a weasel. Hamlet: Or like a whale? Polonius: Very like a whale.
William Shakespeare
That which in mean men we entitle patience is pale cold cowardice in noble breasts.
William Shakespeare
