More quotes by William Shakespeare
Last scene of all that ends this strange, eventful history, is second childishness and mere oblivion. I am sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
William Shakespeare
Love runs away from those chasing her, and those who run away, she throws herself on his neck.
William Shakespeare
France is a dog-hole, and it no more merits the tread of a man's foot.
William Shakespeare
When we are born we cry that we are come to this great stage of fools.
William Shakespeare
Tut, man, one fire burns out another's burning One pain is less'ned by another's anguish Turn giddy, and be holp by backward turning One desperate grief cures with another's languish.
William Shakespeare
Sin, that amends, is but patched with virtue.
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
Love is my sin, and thy dear virtue hate, Hate of my sin, grounded on sinful loving.
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
Robust grass endures mighty winds loyal ministers emerge through ordeal.
William Shakespeare
What, my dear Lady Disdain! are you yet living? Beatrice: Is it possible disdain should die while she hath such meet food to feed it as Signior Benedick?
William Shakespeare
He was met even now As mad as the vex'd sea singing aloud Crown'd with rank fumiter and furrow-weeds, With bur-docks, hemlock, nettles, cuckoo-flowers, Darnel, and all the idle weeds that grow In our sustaining corn.
William Shakespeare
For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground And tell sad stories of the death of kings.
William Shakespeare
To move wild laughter in the throat of death? It cannot be it is impossible: Mirth cannot move a soul in agony.
William Shakespeare
What, with my tongue in your tail? nay, come again, Good Kate I am a gentleman.
William Shakespeare
As a walled town is more worthier than a village, so is the forehead of a married man more honorable than the bare brow of a bachelor.
William Shakespeare
If it be true that good wine needs no bush, 'tis true that a good play needs no epilogue.
William Shakespeare
O sleep, O gentle sleep, Nature's soft nurse, how have I frightened thee, 1710. That thou no more will weigh my eyelids down, And steep my senses in forgetfulness?
William Shakespeare
O tiger's heart wrapped in a woman's hide!
William Shakespeare
Thou art an elm, my husband, I a vine, Whose weakness, married to thy stronger state, Makes me with thy strength to communicate.
William Shakespeare
