More quotes by William Shakespeare
We see which way the stream of time doth run.
William Shakespeare
Opinion, a sovereign mistress of effects.
William Shakespeare
Ay, in the catalogue ye go for men As hounds, and greyhounds, mongrels, spaniels, curs, Shoughs, water-rugs, and demi-wolves, are 'clept All by the name of dogs: the valued file Distinguishes the swift, the slow, the subtle, The housekeeper, the hunter, every one According to the gift which bounteous nature Hath in him closed.
William Shakespeare
Some glory in their birth , some in their skill , Some in their wealth , some in their bodies' force , Some in their garments, though new-fangled ill Some in their hawks and hounds , some in their horse And every humor hath his adjunct pleasure , Wherein it finds a joy above the rest .
William Shakespeare
I had rather eleven died nobly for their country than one voluptuously surfeit out of action.
William Shakespeare
You are made Rather to wonder at the things you hear Than to work any.
William Shakespeare
Thou art an elm, my husband, I a vine, Whose weakness, married to thy stronger state, Makes me with thy strength to communicate.
William Shakespeare
A good sherris-sack hath a twofold operation in it. It ascends me into the brain,... makes it apprehensive, quick, forgetive, full of nimble, fiery, and delectable shapes.
William Shakespeare
Ambition, the soldier's virtue, rather makes choice of loss, than gain which darkens him.
William Shakespeare
What is the city but the people?
William Shakespeare
A man may see how this world goes with no eyes. Look with thine ears: see how yond justice rails upon yon simple thief. Hark, in thine ear: change places and, handy-dandy, which is the justice, which is the thief?
William Shakespeare
Two loves I have, of comfort and despair, Which like two spirits do suggest me still: The better angel is a man right fair, The worser spirit a woman coloured ill.
William Shakespeare
Is love a tender thing? It is too rough, too rude, too boisterous, and it pricks like thorn.
William Shakespeare
Grace me no grace, nor uncle me no uncle.
William Shakespeare
They whose guilt within their bosom lies, imagine every eye beholds their blame.
William Shakespeare
All the world's a stage, and all the men and women mearly players.
William Shakespeare
The gates of monarchs Are arched so high that giants may jet through And keep their impious turbans on without Good morrow to the sun.
William Shakespeare
If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men’s cottages princes’ palaces. It is a good divine that follows his own instructions: I can easier teach twenty what were good to be done, than be one of the twenty to follow mine own teaching.
William Shakespeare
The small amount of foolery wise men have makes a great show.
William Shakespeare
Can one desire too much of a good thing?
William Shakespeare
