More quotes by William Shakespeare
My nature is subdued to what it works in, like the dyer's hand.
William Shakespeare
Those friends thou hast, and their adoption tried, Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel But do not dull thy palm with entertainment Of each new-hatch'd, unfledg'd comrade.
William Shakespeare
If you love an addle egg as well as you love an idle head, you would eat chickens i' th' shell.
William Shakespeare
So may the outward shows be least themselves The world is still deceived with ornament.
William Shakespeare
So holy writ in babes hath judgment shown When judges have been babes great floods have flown From simple sources, and great seas have dried When miracles have by the greatest been denied.
William Shakespeare
An honest man, sir, is able to speak for himself, when a knave is not.
William Shakespeare
Absence from those we love is self from self - a deadly banishment.
William Shakespeare
On pain of death, no person be so bold.
William Shakespeare
Diseases desperate grown By desperate appliances are relieved, Or not at all.
William Shakespeare
Foolery, sir, does walk about the orb like the sun it shines everywhere.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Age, I do abhor thee, youth, I do adore thee.
William Shakespeare
Rumour is a pipe Blown by surmises, jealousies, conjectures And of so easy and so plain a stop That the blunt monster with uncounted heads, The still-discordant wavering multitude, Can play upon it.
William Shakespeare
Let each man do his best.
William Shakespeare
There's never a villain dwelling in all Denmark But he's an arrant knave.
William Shakespeare
A good leg will fall a straight back will stoop a black beard will turn white a curl'd pate will grow bald a fair face will wither a full eye will wax hollow: but a good heart, Kate, is the sun and the moon or, rather, the sun, and not the moon, — for it shines bright, and never changes, but keeps his course truly.
William Shakespeare
Time is the old justice that examines all such offenders, and let Time try.
William Shakespeare
So full of artless jealousy is guilt, It spills itself in fearing to be spilt.
William Shakespeare
Your gentleness shall force More than your force move us to gentleness.
William Shakespeare
GLOUCESTER: I do not know that Englishman alive With whom my soul is any jot at odds, More than the infant that is born to-night: I thank my God for my humility.
William Shakespeare
