William Shakespeare
Tired with all these, for restful death I cry.
William Shakespeare
Too much to know is to know naught but fame.
William Shakespeare
A true repentance shuns the evil itself, more than the external suffering or the shame.
William Shakespeare
Vanity keeps persons in favor with themselves who are out of favor with all others.
William Shakespeare
Good morrow, fair ones pray you, if you know, Where in the purlieus of this forest stands A sheep-cote fenc'd about with olive trees?
William Shakespeare
Love is merely a madness, and, I tell you, deserves as well a dark house and a whip as madmen do.
William Shakespeare
Take you me for a sponge?
William Shakespeare
And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest!
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
Do you bite your thumb at us, sir?
William Shakespeare
Come away, come away, death, And in sad cypres let me be laid Fly away, fly away, breath I am slain by a fair cruel maid.
William Shakespeare
Profit is a blessing, if it's not stolen.
William Shakespeare
The means that heaven yields must be embraced, and not neglected else, if heaven would, and we will not heaven's offer, we refuse the proffered means of succor and redress.
William Shakespeare
Hide not thy poison with such sugar'd words
William Shakespeare
A rarer spirit never Did steer humanity but you gods will give us Some faults to make us men.
William Shakespeare
True, I talk of dreams, Which are the children of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy, Which is as thin of substance as the air, And more inconstant than the wind, who woos Even now the frozen bosom of the north, And, being anger'd, puffs away from thence, Turning his side to the dew-dropping south.
William Shakespeare
My cake is dough, but I'll in among the rest, Out of hope of all but my share of the feast.
William Shakespeare
Misery makes sport to mock itself.
William Shakespeare
Hang those that talk of fear.
William Shakespeare
