More quotes by William Shakespeare
Time hath not yet so dried this blood of mine, Nor age so eat up my invention, Nor fortune made such havoc of my means, Nor my bad life reft me so much of friends, But they shall find awaked in such a kind Both strength of limb and policy of mind, Ability in means, and choice of friends, To quit me of them throughly.
William Shakespeare
I was born free as Caesar so were you
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Thus did I keep my person fresh and new, My presence, like a robe pontifical, Ne'er seen but wondered at, and so my state, Seldom but sumptuous, showed like a feast.
William Shakespeare
Lady, with me, with me thy fortune lies.
William Shakespeare
O world, world! thus is the poor agent despised. O traitors and bawds, how earnestly are you set a-work, and how ill requited! Why should our endeavor be so loved, and the performance so loathed?
William Shakespeare
Be bloody, bold, and resolute laugh to scorn the power of man.
William Shakespeare
I find my zenith doth depend upon A most auspicious star, whose influence If now I court not, but omit, my fortunes Will ever after droop.
William Shakespeare
You know That I do fawn on men, and hug them hard, And after scandal them.
William Shakespeare
I have no other but a woman's reason: I think him so, because I think him so.
William Shakespeare
There is plenty of time to sleep in the grave
