More quotes by William Shakespeare
Slanders, sir, for the satirical rogue says here that old men have grey beards, that their faces are wrinkled, their eyes purging think amber and plum-tree gum, and that they have a plentiful lack of wit, together with most weak hams.
William Shakespeare
For what good turn? Messenger: For the best turn of the bed.
William Shakespeare
Refrain to-night And that shall lend a kind of easiness To the next abstinence, the next more easy For use almost can change the stamp of nature, And either master the devil or throw him out With wondrous potency.
William Shakespeare
Your hearts are mighty, your skins are whole.
William Shakespeare
Sweet recreation barred, what doth ensue but moody and dull melancholy, kinsman to grim and comfortless despair.
William Shakespeare
The eye of man hath not heard, the ear of man hath not seen, man's hand is not able to taste, his tongue to conceive, nor his heart to report, what my dream was.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground, and tell sad stories of the death of kings... All murdered for within the hollow crown that rounds the mortal temples of a king, keeps Death his court... and with a little pin bores through his castle wall, and farewell king!
William Shakespeare
Yield not thy neck To fortunes yoke, but let thy dauntless mind Still ride in triumph over all mischance.
William Shakespeare
In love the heavens themselves do guide the state Money buys lands, and wives are sold by fate.
William Shakespeare
Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall.
William Shakespeare
Remembrance of things past.
William Shakespeare
Therefore, to be possess'd with double pomp, To guard a title that was rich before, To gild refined gold, to paint the lily, To throw a perfume on the violet, To smooth the ice, or add another hue Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish, Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.
William Shakespeare
Crowns in my purse I have, and goods at home, And so am come abroad to see the world.
William Shakespeare
Men's vows are women's traitors
William Shakespeare
Love's gentle spring doth always fresh remain.
William Shakespeare
Yet do I fear thy nature It is too full o' the milk of human kindness.
William Shakespeare
He was ever precise in promise-keeping.
William Shakespeare
No stony bulwark can resist the love, and love dares what anyone can love.
William Shakespeare
