More quotes by William Shakespeare
You great benefactors, sprinkle our society with thankfulness. For your own gifts, make yourselves praised.
William Shakespeare
Withal I did infer your lineaments, Being the right idea of your father, Both in your form and nobleness of mind Laid open all your victories in Scotland, Your discipline in war, wisdom in peace, Your bounty, virtue, fair humility Indeed, left nothing fitting for your purpose Untouch'd or slightly handled in discourse.
William Shakespeare
So they loved as love in twain Had the essence but in one Two distinct, divisions none.
William Shakespeare
You are not worth the dust which the rude wind Blows in your face.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
The love of heaven makes one heavenly.
William Shakespeare

Highly fed and lowly taught.
William Shakespeare
If there be no great love in the beginning, yet heaven may decrease it upon better acquaintance, when we are married and have more occasion to know one another: I hope, upon familiarity will grow more contempt.
William Shakespeare
There is nothing so confining as the prisons of our own perceptions.
William Shakespeare
The common curse of mankind, folly and ignorance, be thine in great revenue!
William Shakespeare
I can get no remedy against this consumption of the purse: borrowing only lingers and lingers it out, but the disease is incurable.
William Shakespeare
If it be a sin to covet honor, I am the most offending soul.
William Shakespeare
Never he will not: Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale Her infinite variety: other women cloy The appetites they feed: but she makes hungry Where most she satisfies.
William Shakespeare
So full of shapes is fancy That it alone is high fantastical.
William Shakespeare
