More quotes by William Shakespeare
Gives not the hawthorn bush a sweeter shade To shepherds, looking on their silly sheep, Than doth a rich embroider'd canopy To kings that fear their subjects treachery?
William Shakespeare
The robbed that smiles, steals something from the thief.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
What's done cannot be undone. To bed, to bed, to bed.
William Shakespeare
A right judgment draws us a profit from all things we see .
William Shakespeare
Who finds the heifer dead and bleeding fresh And sees fast-by a butcher with an axe, But will suspect 'twas he that made the slaughter?
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
I like not fair terms and a villain's mind.
William Shakespeare
The poet's eye, in a fine frenzy rolling, doth glance from heaven to Earth, from Earth to heaven and as imagination bodies forth the forms of things unknown, the poet's pen turns them to shape, and gives to airy nothing a local habitation and a name such tricks hath strong imagination.
William Shakespeare
It provokes the desire but it takes away the performance. Therefore much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him and it mars him it sets him on and it takes him off.
William Shakespeare
Oh what fools we mortals are.
William Shakespeare
Report me and my cause aright.
William Shakespeare
I hate the murderer, love him murdered.
William Shakespeare
What a piece of work is a man

Set your heart at rest. The fairyland buys not the child of me.
William Shakespeare
... by indirections find directions out.
William Shakespeare
Sorrow, like a heavy ringing bell, once set on ringing, with its own weight goes then little strength rings out the doleful knell.
William Shakespeare
When I got enough confidence, the stage was gone. When I was sure of losing, I won. When I needed people the most, they left me. When I learnt to dry my tears, I found a shoulder to cry on. And when I mastered the art of hating, somebody started loving me.
William Shakespeare
Love hath made thee a tame snake
William Shakespeare
Fill all thy bones with aches.
William Shakespeare
