William Shakespeare
O villains, vipers, dogs, easily won to fawn on any man!
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
If there be devils, would I were a devil, To live and burn in everlasting fire, So I might have your company in hell, But to torment you with my bitter tongue!
William Shakespeare
Oh, God! I have an ill-divining soul!
William Shakespeare
One fire burns out another's burning, One pain is lessen'd by another's anguish.
William Shakespeare
Conceit, more rich in matter than in words, Brags of his substance, not of ornament: They are but beggars that can count their worth But my true love is grown to such excess, I cannot sum up half my sum of wealth.
William Shakespeare
Let us, like merchants, show our foulest wares, And think perchance they'll sell if not, The lustre of the better yet to show Shall show the better.
William Shakespeare
The rest, is silence.
William Shakespeare
He wears the rose Of youth upon him.
William Shakespeare
Hang him, swaggering rascal!
William Shakespeare
Some men there are love not a gaping pig, some that are mad if they behold a cat, and others when the bagpipe sings I the nose cannot contain their urine.
