More quotes by William Shakespeare
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. If this be error and upon me prov'd, I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd.
William Shakespeare
Tis not a year or two shows us a man: They are all but stomachs, and we all but food They eat us hungerly, and when they are full They belch us.
William Shakespeare
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
William Shakespeare
Now the fair goddess, Fortune, Fall deep in love with thee, and her great charms Misguide thy opposers' swords!
William Shakespeare
Haply a woman's voice may do some good When articles too nicely urged be stood on.
William Shakespeare
I have very poor and unhappy brains for drinking: I could well wish courtesy would invent some other custom of entertainment.
William Shakespeare
Virtue preserv'd from fell destruction's blast, Led on by heaven, and crown'd with joy at last.
William Shakespeare
Love yourself and in that love not unconsidered leave your honor.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Though now this grained face of mine be hid In sap-consuming winter's drizzled snow, And all the conduits of my blood froze up, Yet hath my night of life some memory, My wasting lamps some fading glimmer left, My dull deaf ears a little use to hear.
William Shakespeare
Well, if Fortune be a woman, she's a good wench for this gear.
William Shakespeare
Words without thoughts never to heaven go.
William Shakespeare
Love is . . . a madness most discreet
William Shakespeare
Where hateful Death put on his ugliest mask.
William Shakespeare
You have but mistook me all the while... I live by bread like you, taste grief, feel want, need friends. Conditioned thus how can you call me king?
William Shakespeare
To hold, as 't were, the mirror up to nature.
William Shakespeare
But O, how bitter a thing it is to look into happiness through another man's eyes.
William Shakespeare
Trust not your daughter's minds By what you see them act.
William Shakespeare
I'll be at charges for a looking-glass And entertain a score or two of tailors To study fashions to adorn my body: Since I am crept in favor with myself, I will maintain it with some little cost.
William Shakespeare
This rudeness is a sauce to his good wit, Which gives men stomach to digest his words With better appetite.
William Shakespeare
