More quotes by William Shakespeare
That affable familiar ghost Which nightly gulls him with intelligence.
William Shakespeare
This England never did, nor never shall, Lie at the proud foot of a conqueror, But when it first did help to wound itself. Now these her princes are come home again, Come the three corners of the world in arms, And we shall shock them. Nought shall make us rue, If England to itself do rest but true.
William Shakespeare
Defer no time, delays have dangerous ends.
William Shakespeare
Foul whisperings are abroad
William Shakespeare
I know no ways to mince it in love, but directly to say - I love you
William Shakespeare
The bitter past, more welcome is the sweet.
William Shakespeare
How sweet the moonlight sleeps upon this bank Here we will sit, and let the sounds of music Creep in our ears soft stillness, and the night Become the touches of sweet harmony
William Shakespeare
Fair, kind, and true, have often lived alone.
William Shakespeare
Which can say more than this rich praise, that you alone are you?
William Shakespeare
Rumour is a pipe Blown by surmises, jealousies, conjectures And of so easy and so plain a stop That the blunt monster with uncounted heads, The still-discordant wavering multitude, Can play upon it.
William Shakespeare
I'll say she looks as clear as morning roses newly washed with dew.
William Shakespeare
Come the three corners of the world in arms, and we shall shock them.
William Shakespeare
A book? O, rare one, Be not, as is our fangled world, a garment Nobler than that it covers.
William Shakespeare
This is a gift that I have, simple, simple a foolish extravagant spirit full of forms, figures, shapes, objects, ideas, apprehensions, motions, revolutions these are begot in the ventricle of memory, nourished in the womb of pia mater, and delivered upon the mellowing of occasion.
William Shakespeare
So far be distant and good night, sweet friend: thy love ne'er alter, till they sweet life end
William Shakespeare
I am not prone to weeping as our sex commonly are the want of which vain dew perchance shall dry your pities but I have that honorable grief lodged here which burns worse than tears drown.
William Shakespeare
Art thou afeard To be the same in thine own act and valour As thou art in desire? Wouldst thou have that Which thou esteem'st the ornament of life, And live a coward in thine own esteem, Letting 'I dare not' wait upon 'I would,' Like the poor cat i' the adage?
William Shakespeare
Love, whose month is ever May, Spied a blossom passing fair, Playing in the wanton air: Through the velvet leaves the wind, All unseen can passage find That the lover, sick to death, Wish'd himself the heaven's breath.
William Shakespeare
I humbly do beseech of your pardon, For too much loving you
William Shakespeare
Weariness can snore upon the flint when resting sloth finds the down pillow hard.
William Shakespeare
