More quotes by William Shakespeare
Before, I loved thee as a brother, John, But now, I do respect thee as my soul.
William Shakespeare
Rumour is a pipe Blown by surmises, jealousies, conjectures And of so easy and so plain a stop That the blunt monster with uncounted heads, The still-discordant wavering multitude, Can play upon it.
William Shakespeare
Do not speak like a death's-head, do not bid me remember mine end.
William Shakespeare
He that will have a cake out of the wheat must tarry the grinding.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Now all the youth of England are on fire, And silken dalliance in the wardrobe lies Now thrive the armorers, and honor's thought Reigns solely in the breast of every man.
William Shakespeare
Give it an understanding, but no tongue.
William Shakespeare
Liberty plucks justice by the nose The baby beats the nurse, and quite athwart Goes all decorum.
William Shakespeare
I had rather be a kitten and cry mew Than one of these same metre ballet-mongers.
William Shakespeare
We make guilty of our disasters the sun, the moon, and the stars as if we were villians by compulsion.
William Shakespeare
Value dwells not in particular will It holds his estimate and dignity As well wherein 'tis precious of itself As in the prizer.
William Shakespeare
Woe to that land that's governed by a child.
William Shakespeare
Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.
William Shakespeare
