More quotes by William Shakespeare
As soon go kindle fire with snow, as seek to quench the fire of love with words.
William Shakespeare
If you be King, why should not I succeed?
William Shakespeare
Educated men are so impressive.
William Shakespeare
The cheek Is apter than the tongue to tell an errand.
William Shakespeare
Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove. O, no! It is an ever-fixed mark, That looks on tempests and is never shaken. It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
William Shakespeare
World, world, O world! But that thy strange mutations make us hate thee/ Life would not yield to age.
William Shakespeare
Whatever praises itself but in the deed, devours the deed in the praise.
William Shakespeare
Abate the edge of traitors, gracious Lord, That would reduce these bloody days again And make poor England weep in streams of blood! Let them not live to taste this land's increase That would with treason wound this fair land's peace! Now civil wounds are stopped, peace lives again: That she may long live here, God say amen!
William Shakespeare
Adversity makes strange bedfellows.
William Shakespeare
Summer's lease hath all too short a date.
William Shakespeare
I have of late--but wherefore I know not--lost all my mirth, forgone all custom of exercise.
William Shakespeare
My chastity's the jewel of our house, bequeathed down from many ancestors.
William Shakespeare
Is this a dagger which I see before me, The handle toward my hand?
William Shakespeare
Love, whose month is ever May, Spied a blossom passing fair, Playing in the wanton air: Through the velvet leaves the wind, All unseen can passage find That the lover, sick to death, Wish'd himself the heaven's breath.
William Shakespeare
O thou that dost inhabit in my breast, leave not the mansion so long tenantless lest, growing ruinous, the building fall and leave no memory of what it was!
William Shakespeare
When I bestride him, I soar, I am a hawk: he trots the air the earth sings when he touches it the basest horn of his hoof is more musical than the pipe of Hermes.
William Shakespeare
I could be well content To entertain the lag-end of my life With quiet hours.
William Shakespeare
Verily, I swear, it is better to be lowly born, and range with humble livers in content, than to be perked up in a glistering grief, and wear a golden sorrow.
William Shakespeare
Sorrow, like a heavy ringing bell, once set on ringing, with its own weight goes then little strength rings out the doleful knell.
William Shakespeare
O England! Model to thy inward greatness, like little body with a might heart.
William Shakespeare
