William Shakespeare
For so work the honey bees, creatures that by a rule in nature teach the act of order to a peopled kingdom.
William Shakespeare
One sees more devils than vast hell can hold
William Shakespeare
Unless hours were cups of sack, and minutes capons, and clocks the tongues of bawds, and dials the signs of leaping-houses, and the blessed sun himself a fair hot wench in flame-colored taffeta, I see no reason why thou shouldst be so superfluous to demand the time of the day.
William Shakespeare
A book? O, rare one, Be not, as is our fangled world, a garment Nobler than that it covers.
William Shakespeare
Art thou afeard To be the same in thine own act and valour As thou art in desire? Wouldst thou have that Which thou esteem'st the ornament of life, And live a coward in thine own esteem, Letting 'I dare not' wait upon 'I would,' Like the poor cat i' the adage?
William Shakespeare
The cheek Is apter than the tongue to tell an errand.
William Shakespeare
Our thoughts are ours, their ends none of our own
William Shakespeare
Hear my soul speak. Of the very instant that I saw you, did my heart fly at your service
William Shakespeare
Come, and take choice of all my library, And so beguile thy sorrow.
William Shakespeare
To hell, allegiance! vows, to the blackest devil! Conscience, and grace, to the profoundest pit! I dare damnation: To this point I stand,-- That both the worlds I give to negligence, Let come what comes only I'll be reveng'd.
William Shakespeare
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child!
William Shakespeare
Let men say we be men of good government, being governed, as the sea is, by our noble and chaste mistress the moon, under whose countenance we steal.
William Shakespeare
Thou frothy tickle-brained hedge-pig!
William Shakespeare
So every bondman in his own hand bears The power to cancel his captivity.
William Shakespeare
And to be merry best becomes you for, out of question, you were born in a merry hour. BEATRICE No, sure, my lord, my mother cried but then there was a star danced, and under that was I born.
William Shakespeare
Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty.
William Shakespeare
All furnished, all in arms All plum'd like estridges that with the wind Bated like eagles having lately bathed Glittering in golden coats like images As full of spirit as the month of May And gorgeous as the sun at midsummer Wanton as youthful goats, wild as young bulls.
William Shakespeare
Preferment goes by letter and affection, And not by old gradation, where each second Stood heir to th's first.
William Shakespeare
Such thanks as fits a king's remembrance.
William Shakespeare
