More quotes by William Shakespeare
The attempt and not the deed confounds us.
William Shakespeare
I have ventured, Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders, This many summers in a sea of glory, But far beyond my depth. My high-blown pride At length broke under me, and now has left me, Weary and old with service, to the mercy Of a rude stream that must for ever hide me.
William Shakespeare
Here, thou incestuous, murderous, damned Dane, Drink off this potion!
William Shakespeare
O me, you juggler, you canker-blossom, you thief of love!
William Shakespeare
I feel within me a peace above all earthly dignities, a still and quiet conscience.
William Shakespeare
To fear the foe, since fear oppresseth strength, gives in your weakness strength unto your foe.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Doubting things go ill often hurts more Than to be sure they do for certainties Either are past remedies, or, timely knowing, The remedy then born.
William Shakespeare
Allow not nature more than nature needs.
William Shakespeare
Who can be wise, amazed, temperate and furious, Loyal and neutral, in a moment? No man.
William Shakespeare
'Tis dangerous to take a cold, to sleep, to drink but I tell you, my lord fool, out of this nettle, danger, we pluck this flower, safety.
William Shakespeare
A sad tale's best for winter. I have one of sprites and goblins.
William Shakespeare
I have a bone to pick with Fate
William Shakespeare
A politician... one that would circumvent God.
William Shakespeare
O gentle son, Upon the heat and flame of thy distemper, sprinkle cool patience.
William Shakespeare
The summer's flower is to the summer sweet Though to itself it only live and die
William Shakespeare
That, sir, which serves and seeks for gain, And follows but for form, Will pack, when it begins to rain, And leave thee in a storm.
William Shakespeare
Me, poor man, my library Was dukedom large enough.
William Shakespeare
A heavier task could not have been impos'd, Than I to speak my griefs unspeakable.
William Shakespeare
