More quotes by William Shakespeare
And therefore is love said to be a child, Because in choice he is so oft beguil'd
William Shakespeare
The play's the thing.
William Shakespeare
She lov'd me for the dangers I had pass'd, And I lov'd her that she did pity them
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
Two households, both alike in dignity In fair Verona, where we lay our scene From ancient grudge break to new mutiny Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life Whose misadventured piteous overthrows Do with their death bury their parents' strife.
William Shakespeare
It is silliness to live when to live is torment, and then have we a prescription to die when death is our physician.
William Shakespeare
I wish you well and so I take my leave, I Pray you know me when we meet again.
William Shakespeare
For truth hath better deeds than words to grace it.
William Shakespeare
How soar sweet music is, when time is broke, and no proportion kept!
William Shakespeare
My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun
William Shakespeare
For by his face straight shall you know his heart.
William Shakespeare
Though men can cover crimes with bold, stern looks, poor women's faces are their own faults' books.
William Shakespeare
I am indeed not her fool, but her corrupter of words. (Act III, sc. I, 37-38)
William Shakespeare
I did never know so full a voice issue from so empty a heart: but the saying is true 'The empty vessel makes the greatest sound'.
William Shakespeare
Why then, O brawling love! O loving hate! O any thing, of nothing first create! O heavy lightness, serious vanity, Misshapen chaos of well-seeming forms, Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health, Still-waking sleep, that is not what it is! This love feel I, that feel no love in this.
William Shakespeare
Th abuse of greatness is when it disjoins remorse from power.
William Shakespeare
Let them obey that knows not how to rule.
William Shakespeare
Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty.
William Shakespeare
It is a good divine that follows his own instructions.
William Shakespeare
Virtue is chok'd with foul ambition
William Shakespeare
