More quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Lords, I protest my soul is full of woe That blood should sprinkle me to make me grow. Come, mourn with me for what I do lament, And put sullen black incontinent. I'll make a voyage to the Holy Land To wash this blood off from my guilty hand. March sadly after. Grace my mournings here In weeping after this untimely bier.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
O jest unseen, inscrutable, invisible, As a nose on a man's face, or a weathercock on a steeple.
William Shakespeare
There is a kind of character in thy life, That to the observer doth thy history, fully unfold.
William Shakespeare
Is this a dagger which I see before me, The handle toward my hand?

Come, and take choice of all my library, And so beguile thy sorrow.
