More quotes by William Shakespeare
A good leg will fall a straight back will stoop a black beard will turn white a curl'd pate will grow bald a fair face will wither a full eye will wax hollow: but a good heart, Kate, is the sun and the moon or, rather, the sun, and not the moon, — for it shines bright, and never changes, but keeps his course truly.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Covering discretion with a coat of folly.
William Shakespeare
The fewer men, the greater share of honor.
William Shakespeare
I will go wash And when my face is fair, you shall perceive Whether I blush or no.
William Shakespeare
Some Cupid kills with arrows, some with traps.
William Shakespeare
I am in blood Stepp'd in so far, that, should I wade no more, Returning were as tedious as go o'er.
William Shakespeare
Having nothing, nothing can he lose.
William Shakespeare
All is well ended if this suit be won. That you express content which we will pay, With strife to please you, day exceeding day.
William Shakespeare
Is it possible that love should of a sudden take such a hold?
William Shakespeare
Tired with all these, for restful death I cry.
William Shakespeare
My life, my joy, my food, my ail the world!
William Shakespeare
