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

More quotes by William Shakespeare
We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
William Shakespeare
Be wise as thou art cruel, do not press My tongue-tied patience with too much disdain: Lest sorrow lend me words and words express, The manner of my pity-wanting pain.
William Shakespeare
Do not plunge thyself too far in anger.
William Shakespeare
Love thrives not in the heart that shadows dreadeth
William Shakespeare
The breach of custom Is breach of all.
William Shakespeare
What's brave, what's noble, let's do it after the Roman fashion.
William Shakespeare
The nature of bad news affects the teller.
William Shakespeare
Crabbed age and youth cannot live together: Youth is full of pleasance, age is full of care.
William Shakespeare
Fat paunches have lean pates, and dainty bits Make rich the ribs, but backrout quite the wits.
William Shakespeare
I have shot mine arrow o'er the house And hurt my brother.
William Shakespeare
Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore, So do our minutes hasten to their end Each changing place with that which goes before, In sequent toil all forwards do contend.
William Shakespeare
DEMETRIUS Relent, sweet Hermia: and, Lysander, yield Thy crazed title to my certain right. LYSANDER You have her father's love, Demetrius Let me have Hermia's: do you marry him.
William Shakespeare
You are not wood, you are not stones, but men And being men, hearing the will of Caesar, It will inflame you, it will make you mad.
William Shakespeare
I heard a bustling rumor like a fray, And the wind blows it from the Capitol.
William Shakespeare
I have lived long enough. My way of life is to fall into the sere, the yellow leaf, and that which should accompany old age, as honor, love, obedience, troops of friends I must not look to have.
William Shakespeare
Have you not love enough to bear with me, when that rash humor which my mother gave me makes me forgetful.
William Shakespeare
On your eyelids crown the god of sleep, Charming your blood with pleasing heaviness, Making such difference 'twixt wake and sleep As is the difference betwixt day and night The hour before the heavenly-harness'd team Begins his golden progress in the east.
William Shakespeare
The labor we delight in physics [cures] pain.
William Shakespeare
Mine honour is my life both grow in one Take honour from me, and my life is done.
William Shakespeare
If there were reason for these miseries, then into limits could I bind my woes. If the winds rages, doth not the sea wax mad, threat'ning the welkin with its big-swoll'n face? And wilt though have a reason for this coil? I am the sea. Hark how her sighs doth blow. She is the weeping welkin, I the earth.
William Shakespeare
