Then know, that I have little wealth to lose. A man I am, crossed with adversity My riches are these poor habiliments, Of which if you should here disfurnish me, You take the sum and substance that I have.
William Shakespeare

More quotes by William Shakespeare
When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married.
William Shakespeare
An old black ram is tupping your white ewe
William Shakespeare
Every man has a bag hanging before him, in which he puts his neighbour's faults, and another behind him in which he stows his own.
William Shakespeare
I charge thee, hence, and do not haunt me thus.
William Shakespeare
Tell me where is fancy bred, Or in the heart, or in the head?
William Shakespeare
Men that hazard all Do it in hope of fair advantages: A golden mind stoops not to shows of dross.
William Shakespeare
Under the greenwood tree, Who loves to lie with me And tune his merry note, Unto the sweet bird's throat Come hither, come hither, come hither. Here shall he see No enemy But winter and rough weather.
William Shakespeare
I prithee gentle friend, Let thy fair wisdom, not thy passions, sway In this uncivil and unjust extent Against thy peace.
William Shakespeare
Fie, fie, how frantically I square my talk!
William Shakespeare
That time of year thou mayst in me behold When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang Upon those boughs which shake against the cold, Bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds sang. In me thou seest the twilight of such day, As after sunset fadeth in the west, Which by-and-by black night doth take away.
William Shakespeare
Why should we rise because 'tis light? Did we lie down because t'was night?
William Shakespeare
Macbeth to Witches: What are these So wither'd and so wild in their attire, That look not like th' inhabitants o' th' earth, And yet are on 't?
William Shakespeare
Oh! it offends me to the soul to hear a robust periwig-pated fellow, tear a passion to tatters, to very rags, to split the ears of the groundlings.
William Shakespeare
A man cannot make him laugh but that's no marvel he drinks no wine.... If I had a thousand sons, the first human principle I would teach them should be, to forswear thin potations and to addict themselves to sack.
William Shakespeare
Now join your hands, and with your hands your hearts.
William Shakespeare
Th abuse of greatness is when it disjoins remorse from power.
William Shakespeare
Lady, you know no rules of charity, Which renders good for bad, blessings for curses.
William Shakespeare
One woman is fair, yet I am well another is wise, yet I am well another virtuous, yet I am well but till all graces be in one woman, one woman shall not come in my grace.
William Shakespeare
Here feel we but the penalty of Adam, The seasons' difference, as the icy fang And churlish chiding of the winter's wind, Which, when it bites and blows upon my body, Even till I shrink with cold, I smile.
William Shakespeare
Teeth hadst thou in thy head when thou wast born, To signify thou camest to bite the world.
William Shakespeare
