More quotes by William Shakespeare
O coward conscience, how dost thou afflict me!
William Shakespeare
Here feel we but the penalty of Adam, The seasons' difference, as the icy fang And churlish chiding of the winter's wind, Which, when it bites and blows upon my body, Even till I shrink with cold, I smile.
William Shakespeare
Though authority be a stubborn bear, yet he is oft let by the nose with gold.
William Shakespeare
Two loves I have, of comfort and despair, Which like two spirits do suggest me still: The better angel is a man right fair, The worser spirit a woman coloured ill.
William Shakespeare
The Devil hath power To assume a pleasing shape.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
The best is yet to come.
William Shakespeare

Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long / To speak of that which gives thee all thy might?
William Shakespeare
What say you to a piece of beef and mustard?
William Shakespeare
I'll say she looks as clear as morning roses newly washed with dew.
William Shakespeare
Make use of time, let not advantage slip Beauty within itself should not be wasted: Fair flowers that are not gather'd in their prime Rot and consume themselves in little time.
William Shakespeare
Kindness in women, not their beauteous looks, Shall win my love.
William Shakespeare
You have witchcraft in your lips
William Shakespeare
Coward dogs most spend their mouths when what they seem to threaten runs far before them.
William Shakespeare
Away, you cut-purse rascal! you filthy bung, away! By this wine, I'll thrust my knife in your mouldy chaps, an you play the saucy cuttle with me. Away, you bottle-ale rascal! you basket-hilt stale juggler, you!
William Shakespeare
