More quotes by William Shakespeare
Love's heralds should be thoughts, Which ten times faster glide than the sun's beams Driving back shadows over low'ring hills. Therefore do nimble-pinioned doves draw Love, And therefore hath the wind-swift Cupid wings.
William Shakespeare
Give it an understanding, but no tongue.
William Shakespeare
There is little choice in a barrel of rotten apples.
William Shakespeare
One fire burns out another's burning, One pain is lessen'd by another's anguish.
William Shakespeare
What fates impose, that men must needs abide it boots not to resist both wind and tide.
William Shakespeare
Gratiano speaks an infinite deal of nothing, more than any man in all Venice. His reasons are as two grains of wheat hid in two bushels of chaff: you shall seek all day ere you find them, and when you have them, they are not worth the search.
William Shakespeare
A fusty nut with no kernel.
William Shakespeare
To say the truth, so Judas kissed his master And cried, 'All hail!' when as he meant all harm.
William Shakespeare

Lives like a drunken sailor on a mast, Ready with every nod to tumble down Into the fatal bowels of the deep.
William Shakespeare
Until I know this sure uncertainty, I'll entertain the offered fallacy.
William Shakespeare
Life's uncertain voyage.
William Shakespeare
Foul fiend of France and hag of all despite, Encompassed with thy lustful paramours, Becomes it thee to taunt his valiant age And twit with cowardice a man half dead?
William Shakespeare
Hot and hasty, like a Scotch jig.
William Shakespeare
Help, master, help! here's a fish hangs in the net, like a poor man's right in the law 'twill hardly come out.
William Shakespeare
The golden age is before us, not behind us.
William Shakespeare
Wish chastely, and love dearly.
William Shakespeare
Let there be gall enough in thy ink, though thou write with a goose-pen, no matter.
William Shakespeare
What my tongue dares not that my heart shall say
William Shakespeare
This look of thine will hurl my soul from heaven.
William Shakespeare
