More quotes by William Shakespeare
If she be fair and wise, fairness and wit, The one's for use, the other useth it.
William Shakespeare
Great men may jest with saints 'tis wit in them But, in the less foul profanation.
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
I know them, yea, And what they weigh, even to the utmost scruple Scambling, out-facing, fashion-mong'ring boys, That lie, and cog, and flout, deprave, and slander, Go antickly, and show outward hideousness, And speak off half a dozen dangerous words, How they might hurt their enemies, if they durst And this is all.
William Shakespeare
Thus die I, thus, thus, thus. Now am I dead, Now am I fled My soul is in the sky: Tongue, lose thy light Moon take thy flight. Now die, die, die, die, die.
William Shakespeare
I have a bone to pick with Fate
William Shakespeare
O how wretched is that poor man that hangs on princes favors! There is betwixt that smile we would aspire to, that sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin, more pangs and fears than wars or women have, and when he falls, he falls like Lucifer, never to hope again.
William Shakespeare
O, this life Is nobler than attending for a check, Richer than doing nothing for a robe, Prouder than rustling in unpaid-for silk: Such pain the cap of him that makes him fine Yet keeps his book uncrossed.
William Shakespeare
I am not in the giving vein today.
William Shakespeare
Love is a wonderful, terrible thing
William Shakespeare
Men at sometime are the masters of their fate.
William Shakespeare
We suffer a lot the few things we lack and we enjoy too little the many things we have.
William Shakespeare
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips, Straining upon the start. The game's afoot Follow your spirit: and upon this charge, Cry — God for Harry! England and Saint George!
William Shakespeare
What Time hath scanted men in hair, he hath given them in wit.
William Shakespeare
A fellow by the hand of nature mark'd, Quoted, and sign'd, to do a deed of shame.
William Shakespeare
Oppose not rage while rage is in its force, but give it way a while and let it waste.
William Shakespeare
That you were once unkind befriends me now, And for that sorrow, which I then did feel, Needs must I under my transgression bow, Unless my nerves were brass or hammered steel.
William Shakespeare
But that the dread of something after death, The undiscover'd country from whose bourn No traveller returns, puzzles the will And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of?
William Shakespeare
When the age is in, the wit is out
William Shakespeare
Canst thou not minister to a mind diseased, Pluck from the memory a rooted sorrow, Raze out the written troubles of the brain
William Shakespeare
