William Shakespeare
It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.
William Shakespeare
No worse a husband than the best of men.
William Shakespeare
If chance will have me king, why, chance may crown me.
William Shakespeare
Light and lust are deadly enemies.
William Shakespeare
Look, what a horse should have he did not lack, Save a proud rider on his back.
William Shakespeare
I begin to find an idle and fond bondage in the oppression of aged tyranny, who sways, not as it hath power, but as it is suffered.
William Shakespeare
Thy best of rest is sleep, And that thou oft provok'st yet grossly fear'st Thy death, which is no more.
William Shakespeare
The trust I have is in mine innocence, and therefore am I bold and resolute.
William Shakespeare
A lover goes toward his beloved as enthusiastically as a schoolboy leaving his books, but when he leaves his girlfriend, he feels as miserable as the schoolboy on his way to school. (Act 2, scene 2)
William Shakespeare
Superfluity comes sooner by white hairs, but competency lives longer.
William Shakespeare
Conceit, more rich in matter than in words, Brags of his substance, not of ornament: They are but beggars that can count their worth But my true love is grown to such excess, I cannot sum up half my sum of wealth.
William Shakespeare
What early tongue so sweet saluteth me? Young son, it argues a distemper'd head So soon to bid good morrow to thy bed: Care keeps his watch in every old man's eye, And where care lodges, sleep will never lie But where unbruised youth with unstuff'd brain Doth couch his limbs, there golden sleep doth reign.
William Shakespeare
Fare thee well, king: sith thus thou wilt appear, Freedom lives hence, and banishment is here.
William Shakespeare
When I bestride him, I soar, I am a hawk: he trots the air the earth sings when he touches it the basest horn of his hoof is more musical than the pipe of Hermes.
William Shakespeare
To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.
William Shakespeare
This thought is as a death.
William Shakespeare
Policy sits above conscience.
William Shakespeare
Scratching could not make it worse, an't were such a face as yours were.
William Shakespeare
Some grief shows much of love, But much of grief shows still some want of wit.
William Shakespeare
