More quotes by William Shakespeare
To fear the foe, since fear oppresseth strength, Gives, in your weakness, strength unto your foe, And so your follies fight against yourself. Fear, and be slain--so worse can come to fight And fight and die is death destroying death, Where fearing dying pays death servile breath.
William Shakespeare
I cannot tell what you and other men Think of this life but, for my single self, I had as lief not be as live to be In awe of such a thing as I myself.
William Shakespeare
To move is to stir, and to be valiant is to stand therefore, if tou art mov'd, thou runst away. (To be angry is to move, to be brave is to stand still. Therefore, if you're angry, you'll run away.)
William Shakespeare
I was born free as Caesar so were you
William Shakespeare
Things sweet to taste prove in digestion sour.
William Shakespeare
How hard it is to hide the sparks of Nature!
William Shakespeare
What can be avoided Whose end is purposed by the mighty gods?
William Shakespeare
By heaven, I'll make a ghost of him that lets me.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
We all are men, in our own natures frail, and capable of our flesh few are angels.
William Shakespeare
To lapse in fulness Is sorer than to lie for need, and falsehood Is worse in kings than beggars.
William Shakespeare
My hands are of your color, but I shame to wear a heart so white.
William Shakespeare
[S]ince brevity is the soul of wit, And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes, I will be brief.
William Shakespeare
For Brutus is an honourable man So are they all, all honourable men.
William Shakespeare
It provokes the desire but it takes away the performance. Therefore much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him and it mars him it sets him on and it takes him off.
William Shakespeare
I am not in the roll of common men.
William Shakespeare
Free from gross passion or of mirth of anger constant spirit, not swerving with the blood, garnish'd and deck'd in modest compliment, not working with the eye without the ear, and but in purged judgement trusting neither? Such and so finely bolted didst thou seem.
William Shakespeare
Every good servant does not all commands.
William Shakespeare
I can see his pride Peep through each part of him.
William Shakespeare
There's place and means for every man alive.
William Shakespeare
