More quotes by William Shakespeare
Thou and I are too wise to woo peaceably.
William Shakespeare
Gloucester, we have done deeds of charity, made peace of enmity, fair love of hate, between these swelling wrong-incensed peers.
William Shakespeare
Let none presume To wear an undeserved dignity. O that estates, degrees, and offices Were not derived corruptly, and that clear honour Were purchased by the merit of the wearer!
William Shakespeare
O horror! Horror! Horror! Tongue nor heart Cannot conceive nor name thee!
William Shakespeare
I have seen the day of wrong through the little hole of discretion, and I will right myself like a soldier.
William Shakespeare
Full oft we see Cold wisdom waiting on superfluous folly.
William Shakespeare
Flesh and blood, You, brother mine, that entertain'd ambition, Expell'd remorse and nature, who, with Sebastian- Whose inward pinches therefore are most strong- Would here have kill'd your king, I do forgive thee, Unnatural though thou art.
William Shakespeare
I durst not laugh for fear of opening my lips and receiving the bad air.
William Shakespeare
Be to yourself as you would to your friend.
William Shakespeare
A contract of eternal bond of love, Confirm'd by mutual joinder of your hands, Arrested by the holy close of lips, Strength'ned by the interchangement of your rings, And all the ceremony of this compact Seal'd in my function, by my testimony.
William Shakespeare
The lowest ebb is the turn of the tide. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow We are such stuff as dreams are made of.
William Shakespeare
O mischief, thou art swift to enter in the thoughts of desperate men!
William Shakespeare
Romeo: I dreamt a dream tonight. Mercutio: And so did I. Romeo: Well, what was yours? Mercutio: That dreamers often lie. Romeo: In bed asleep while they do dream things true.
William Shakespeare
The wound of peace is surety, Surety secure but modest doubt is called The beacon of the wise, the tent that searches To th' bottom of the worst.
William Shakespeare
Every true man's apparel fits your thief.
William Shakespeare
O serpent heart hid with a flowering face! Did ever a dragon keep so fair a cave? Beautiful tyrant, feind angelical, dove feather raven, wolvish-ravening lamb! Despised substance of devinest show, just opposite to what thou justly seemest - A dammed saint, an honourable villain!
William Shakespeare
O' What may man within him hide, though angel on the outward side!
William Shakespeare
Now, my co-mates and brothers in exile, Hath not old custom made this life more sweet Than that of painted pomp? Are not these woods More free from peril than the envious court?
William Shakespeare
His life was gentle and the elements So mixed in him, that Nature might stand up And say to all the world, THIS WAS A MAN!
William Shakespeare
Faster than spring-time showers comes thought on thought.
William Shakespeare
