William Shakespeare
My grief lies all within, And these external manners of lament Are merely shadows to the unseen grief That swells with silence in the tortured soul.
William Shakespeare
All the world's a stage ... and you better have a zoning variance or it's coming down.
William Shakespeare
She marking them begins a wailing note And sings extemporally a woeful ditty How love makes young men thrall and old men dote How love is wise in folly, foolish-witty Her heavy anthem still concludes in woe, And still the choir of echoes answer so.
William Shakespeare
But when the fox hath once got in his nose, He'll soon find means to make the body follow.
William Shakespeare
I am not in the roll of common men.
William Shakespeare
Love all. Trust a few. Do wrong to none. This above all: to thine own self be true. No legacy is so rich as honesty. Brevity is the soul of wit
William Shakespeare
Why, what should be the fear? I do not set my life at a pin's fee.
William Shakespeare
Farewell, fair cruelty.
William Shakespeare
Hear my soul speak. Of the very instant that I saw you, did my heart fly at your service
William Shakespeare
Live loath'd and long, Most smiling, smooth, detested parasites, Courteous destroyers, affable wolves, meek bears, You fools of fortune, trencher friends, time flies Cap and knee slaves, vapors, and minute jacks.
William Shakespeare
Some falls the means are happier to rise.
William Shakespeare
Thy words, I grant are bigger, for I wear not, my dagger in my mouth.
William Shakespeare
Let us not burden our remembrances with a heaviness that's gone.
William Shakespeare
