More quotes by William Shakespeare
Your gentleness shall force More than your force move us to gentleness.
William Shakespeare
O God, I could be bound in a nutshell, and count myself a king of infinite space – were it not that I have bad dreams.
William Shakespeare
O for a Muse of fire, that would ascend The brightest heaven of invention, A kingdom for a stage, princes to act And monarchs to behold the swelling scene!
William Shakespeare
...and then, in dreaming, / The clouds methought would open and show riches / Ready to drop upon me, that when I waked / I cried to dream again.
William Shakespeare
I do know when the blood burns, how prodigal the soul lends the tongue vows.
William Shakespeare
True, I talk of dreams, Which are the children of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy.

William Shakespeare
Unless hours were cups of sack, and minutes capons, and clocks the tongues of bawds, and dials the signs of leaping-houses, and the blessed sun himself a fair hot wench in flame-colored taffeta, I see no reason why thou shouldst be so superfluous to demand the time of the day.
William Shakespeare
A very little little let us do And all is done.
William Shakespeare
Who finds the heifer dead and bleeding fresh And sees fast-by a butcher with an axe, But will suspect 'twas he that made the slaughter?
William Shakespeare
A rarer spirit never Did steer humanity but you gods will give us Some faults to make us men.
William Shakespeare
Bring me a constant woman to her husband, One that ne'er dream'd a joy beyond his pleasure, And to that woman, when she has done most, Yet will I add an honour-a great patience.
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
The wheel is come full circle.
William Shakespeare
Now the good gods forbid That our renowned Rome, whose gratitude Towards her deserved children is enrolled In Jove's own book, like an unnatural dam Should now eat up her own!
William Shakespeare
I am never merry when I hear sweet music.
William Shakespeare
