More quotes by William Shakespeare
This is a gift that I have, simple, simple a foolish extravagant spirit full of forms, figures, shapes, objects, ideas, apprehensions, motions, revolutions these are begot in the ventricle of memory, nourished in the womb of pia mater, and delivered upon the mellowing of occasion.
William Shakespeare
Take physic, pomp Expose thyself to feel what wretches feel, That thou mayst shake the superflux to them And show the heavens more just.
William Shakespeare
a young woman in love always looks like patience on a monument smiling at grief
William Shakespeare
So doth the greater glory dim the less: A substitute shines brightly as a king Until a king be by.
William Shakespeare
Poor wretches that depend On greatness' favor, dream as I have done Wake, and find nothing.
William Shakespeare
...lest too light winning make the prize light.
William Shakespeare
Get thee glass eyes, and like a scurvy politician, seem to see the things thou dost not.
William Shakespeare
A peace is of the nature of a conquest for then both parties nobly are subdued, and neither party loser.
William Shakespeare
No, I will be the pattern of all patience I will say nothing.
William Shakespeare
As love is full of unbefitting strains, All wanton as a child, skipping and vain, Form'd by the eye and therefore, like the eye, Full of strange shapes, of habits and of forms, Varying in subjects as the eye doth roll To every varied object in his glance
William Shakespeare
True, I talk of dreams, Which are the children of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy.
William Shakespeare
I that please some, try all, both joy and terror Of good and bad, that makes and unfolds error.
William Shakespeare
Love is a spirit all compact of fire.
William Shakespeare
O, the difference of man and man! To thee a woman's services are due.
William Shakespeare
I'll make death love me for I will contend Even with his pestilent scythe.
William Shakespeare
Well, heaven forgive him! and forgive us all! Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall: Some run from brakes of ice, and answer none: And some condemned for a fault alone.
William Shakespeare
As I hope For quiet days, fair issue, and long life, With such love as 'tis now, the murkiest den, The most opportune place, the strong'st suggestion Our worser genius can, shall never melt Mine honour into lust, to take away The edge of that day's celebration, When I shall think or Phoebus' steeds are founder'd Or Night kept chain'd below.
William Shakespeare
Love that well which thou must leave ere long.
William Shakespeare
I always thought it was both impious and unnatural that such immanity and bloody strife should reign among professors of one faith.
William Shakespeare
A politician... one that would circumvent God.
William Shakespeare
