No might nor greatness in mortality Can censure 'scape back- wounding calumny The whitest virtue strikes. What king so strong Can tie the gall up in the slanderous tongue?

More quotes by William Shakespeare
A woman's fitness comes by fits.
William Shakespeare
I knew when seven justices could not take up a quarrel, but when the parties were met themselves, one of them thought but of an If, as, 'If you said so, then I said so' and they shook hands and swore brothers. Your If is the only peacemaker much virtue in If.
William Shakespeare
But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, All losses are restored and sorrows end.
William Shakespeare
There is a devilish mercy in the judge, if you'll implore it, that will free your life, but fetter you till death.
William Shakespeare
Farewell! God knows when we shall meet again.
William Shakespeare
As love is full of unbefitting strains, All wanton as a child, skipping and vain, Form'd by the eye and therefore, like the eye, Full of strange shapes, of habits and of forms, Varying in subjects as the eye doth roll To every varied object in his glance
William Shakespeare
For by his face straight shall you know his heart.
William Shakespeare
And thus I clothe my naked villainy With odd old ends stol'n out of holy writ And seem a saint, when most I play the devil.
William Shakespeare
Since my dear soul was mistress of her choice And could of men distinguish her election, Sh'ath sealed thee for herself.
William Shakespeare
I do I know not what, and fear to find Mine eye too great a flatterer for my mind. Fate, show thy force. Ourselves we do not owe. What is decreed must be and be this so.
William Shakespeare
Truly, I would not hang a dog by my will, much more a man who hath any honesty in him.
William Shakespeare
More of your conversation would infect my brain.
William Shakespeare
O' thinkest thou we shall ever meet again? I doubt it not and all these woes shall serve For sweet discourses in our times to come.
William Shakespeare
Open thy gate of mercy, gracious God, My soul flies through these wounds to seek out thee.
William Shakespeare
If you be King, why should not I succeed?
William Shakespeare
Then love-devouring Death do what he dare.
William Shakespeare
I love you with so much of my heart that none is left to protest.
William Shakespeare
Good God, the souls of all my tribe defend From jealousy!
William Shakespeare
Our thoughts are ours, their ends none of our own
William Shakespeare
Keep time! How sour sweet music is when time is broke and no proportion kept! So is it in the music of men's lives. I wasted time and now doth time waste me.
William Shakespeare
