More quotes by William Shakespeare
Equality of two domestic powers Breeds scrupulous faction.
William Shakespeare
For in my youth I never did apply Hot and rebellious liquors in my blood.
William Shakespeare
Thrift, thrift, Horatio! The funeral bak'd meats did coldly furnish forth the marriage tables.
William Shakespeare
The little dogs and all, Tray, Blanch, and Sweetheart-see, they bark at me.
William Shakespeare
Love is merely a madness and, I tell you, deserves as well a dark house and a whip as madmen do and the reason why they are not so punish'd and cured is that the lunacy is so ordinary that the whippers are in love too.
William Shakespeare
The wind-shak'd surge, with high and monstrous main, Seems to cast water on the burning Bear, And quench the guards of the ever-fixed pole.
William Shakespeare
And by that destiny to perform an act Whereof what's past is prologue, what to come In yours and my discharge.
William Shakespeare
Beauty provoketh thieves sooner than gold.

Exit, pursued by a bear.
William Shakespeare
Therefore, to be possess'd with double pomp, To guard a title that was rich before, To gild refined gold, to paint the lily, To throw a perfume on the violet, To smooth the ice, or add another hue Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish, Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.
William Shakespeare
What can be avoided Whose end is purposed by the mighty gods?
William Shakespeare
A hundred thousand welcomes: I could weep, And I could laugh I am light and heavy: Welcome.
William Shakespeare
But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
William Shakespeare
No particular scandal one can touch but it confounds the breather.
William Shakespeare
Come, and take choice of all my library, And so beguile thy sorrow.
William Shakespeare
If the masses can love without knowing why, they also hate without much foundation.
William Shakespeare
Death makes no conquest of this conqueror: For now he lives in fame, though not in life.
William Shakespeare
Thine eyes I love, and they as pitying me, Knowing thy heart torment me with disdain, Have put on black, and loving mourners be, Looking with pretty ruth upon my pain.
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
