My free drift Halts not particularly, but moves itself In a wide sea of wax no levelled malice Infects one comma in the course I hold, But flies an eagle flight, bold and forth on, Leaving no tract behind.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
Away, you mouldy rogue, away!
William Shakespeare
Doubting things go ill often hurts more Than to be sure they do for certainties Either are past remedies, or, timely knowing, The remedy then born.
William Shakespeare
Affliction may one day smile again and till then, sit thee down, sorrow!.
William Shakespeare
Tell them, that, to ease them of their griefs, Their fear of hostile strokes, their aches, losses, Their pangs of love, with other incident throes That nature's fragile vessel doth sustain In life's uncertain voyage, I will some kindness do them.
William Shakespeare
Would I were dead, if God's good will were so, For what is in this world but grief and woe?
William Shakespeare
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
William Shakespeare
...too much sadness hath congealed your blood,And melancholy is the nurse of frenzy.
William Shakespeare
The eagle suffers little birds to sing, And is not careful what they mean thereby, Knowing that with the shadow of his wings He can at pleasure stint their melody: Even so mayest thou the giddy men of Rome.
William Shakespeare
O madam, my old heart is cracked, it's cracked!
William Shakespeare
The thorny point Of bare distress hath ta'en from me the show Of smooth civility yet am I inland bred And know some nurture.
William Shakespeare
Words to deeds cold breath gives.
William Shakespeare
That is my home of love: if I have ranged, Like him that travels I return again, Just to the time, not with the time exchanged.
William Shakespeare
How many cowards whose hearts are all as false As stairs of sand, wear yet upon their chins The beards of Hercules and frowning Mars, Who inward searched, have livers white as milk!
William Shakespeare
The tyrant custom, most grave senators, Hath made the flinty and steel couch of war My thrice-driven bed of down.
William Shakespeare
I am now of all humors that have showed themselves humors since the old days of goodman Adam to the pupil age of this present twelve o'clock at midnight.
William Shakespeare
Tell me where is fancy bred, Or in the heart, or in the head? How begot, how nourished? Reply, reply. It is engend'red in the eyes, With gazing fed, and fancy dies In the cradle where it lies.
William Shakespeare
The eye sees all, but the mind shows us what we want to see.
William Shakespeare
To be once in doubt Is once to be resolved.
William Shakespeare
Bassanio: Do all men kill all the things they do not love? Shylock: Hates any man the thing he would not kill? Bassanio: Every offence is not a hate at first.
William Shakespeare
Sin from thy lips? O trespass sweetly urged! Give me my sin again.
William Shakespeare
