More quotes by William Shakespeare
Farewell the plumed troop, and the big wars That make ambition virtue! O, farewell! Farewell the neighing steed and the shrill trump, The spirit-stirring drum, th' ear-piercing fife, The royal banner, and all quality, Pride, pomp, and circumstance of glorious war!
William Shakespeare
A good sherris-sack hath a twofold operation in it. It ascends me into the brain,... makes it apprehensive, quick, forgetive, full of nimble, fiery, and delectable shapes.
William Shakespeare
I have shot mine arrow o'er the house And hurt my brother.
William Shakespeare
I do I know not what, and fear to find Mine eye too great a flatterer for my mind. Fate, show thy force. Ourselves we do not owe. What is decreed must be and be this so.
William Shakespeare
O hell! to choose love with another's eye.
William Shakespeare
An arrant traitor as any is in the universal world, or in France, or in England.
William Shakespeare
Beauty itself doth of itself persuade the eyes of men without an orator.
William Shakespeare
A sentence is but a cheveril glove to a good wit How quickly the wrong side may be turned outward!
William Shakespeare
When a man's verses cannot be understood, nor a man's good wit seconded with the forward child understanding, it strikes a man more dead than a great reckoning in a little room. Truly, I would the gods had made thee poetical.
William Shakespeare
Would I were dead, if God's good will were so, For what is in this world but grief and woe?
William Shakespeare
Opinion, a sovereign mistress of effects.
William Shakespeare
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child!
William Shakespeare
Shall remain! Hear you this Triton of the minnows? Mark you His absolute 'shall'?
William Shakespeare
Nay, we must think men are not gods, Nor of them look for such observancy As fits the bridal.
William Shakespeare
His steeds to water at those springs On chaliced flowers that lies And winking Mary-buds begin To ope their golden eyes: With every thing that pretty is, My lady sweet, arise.
William Shakespeare
Piece out our imperfections with your thoughts.
William Shakespeare
But I remember now I am in this earthly world, where to do harm Is often laudable, to do good sometime Accounted dangerous folly.
William Shakespeare
If there were reason for these miseries, then into limits could I bind my woes. If the winds rages, doth not the sea wax mad, threat'ning the welkin with its big-swoll'n face? And wilt though have a reason for this coil? I am the sea. Hark how her sighs doth blow. She is the weeping welkin, I the earth.
William Shakespeare
Remuneration! O! That's the Latin word for three farthings
William Shakespeare
Though this be madness, yet there is method in't.
William Shakespeare
