More quotes by William Shakespeare

And controversy hence a question takes, Whether the horse by him became his deed, Or he his manage by the well-doing steed.

There are no tricks in plain and simple faith But hollow men, like horses hot at hand, Make gallant show and promise of their mettle But when they should endure the bloody spur, They fall their crests, and like deceitful jades Sink in the trial.
William Shakespeare
Now I will believe that there are unicorns.
William Shakespeare
Is it not strange, that sheep's guts should hale souls out of men's bodies!

Lord, I could not endure a husband with a beard on his face! I had rather lie in the woolen.
William Shakespeare
You peasant swain! You whoreson malt-horse drudge!
William Shakespeare
