More quotes by William Shakespeare
No legacy is so rich as honesty.
William Shakespeare
Twas a clever quibble. Here, a garment for it.
William Shakespeare
The heart hath treble wrong When it is barr'd the aidance of the tongue.
William Shakespeare
A good heart 'is worth gold.
William Shakespeare
But love, first learned in a lady's eyes, Lives not alone immured in the brain But, with the motion of all elements, Courses as swift as thought in every power, And gives to every power a double power, Above their functions and their offices.
William Shakespeare
Nothing routs us but the villainy of our fears.
William Shakespeare
Thou weigh'st thy words before thou givest them breath.
William Shakespeare
They that touch pitch will be defiled.
William Shakespeare
Time hath not yet so dried this blood of mine, Nor age so eat up my invention, Nor fortune made such havoc of my means, Nor my bad life reft me so much of friends, But they shall find awaked in such a kind Both strength of limb and policy of mind, Ability in means, and choice of friends, To quit me of them throughly.
William Shakespeare
I have ventured, Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders, This many summers in a sea of glory, But far beyond my depth. My high-blown pride At length broke under me, and now has left me, Weary and old with service, to the mercy Of a rude stream that must for ever hide me.
William Shakespeare
Omission to do what is necessary Seals a commission to a blank of danger And danger, like an ague, subtly taints Even then when we sit idly in the sun.
William Shakespeare
The language I have learnt these forty years, My native English, now I must forgo And now my tongue's use is to me no more Than an unstringed viol or a harp, Or like a cunning instrument cased up Or, being open, put into his hands That knows no touch to tune the harmony.
William Shakespeare
At Christmas, I no more desire a rose.
William Shakespeare
For my part, I may speak it to my shame, I have a truant been to chivalry And so I hear he doth account me too.
William Shakespeare
Evermore thanks, the exchequer of the poor
William Shakespeare
thou art the best o' the cut-throats
William Shakespeare
I...Kisss the tender inward of thy hand.
William Shakespeare
ROSS You must have patience, madam. LADY MACDUFF He had none: His flight was madness: when our actions do not, Our fears do make us traitors.
William Shakespeare
He is dead and gone, lady, He is dead and gone At his head a grass-green turf, At his heels a stone.
William Shakespeare
Coward dogs most spend their mouths when what they seem to threaten runs far before them.
William Shakespeare
