More quotes by William Shakespeare
And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest!
William Shakespeare
A very little thief of occasion will rob you of a great deal of patience.
William Shakespeare
I have seen better faces in my time Than stands on any shoulder that I see Before me at this instant.
William Shakespeare
Through tattered clothes great vices do appear Robes and furred gowns hide all. Plate sin with gold and the strong lance of justice hurtless breaks. Arm it in rags, a pigmy's straw does pierce it.
William Shakespeare
How strange or odd some'er I bear myself, As I perchance hereafter shall think meet To put an antic disposition on.
William Shakespeare
Graze on my lips and if those hills be dry, stray lower, where the pleasant fountains lie.
William Shakespeare
Our wills and fates do so contrary run, That our devices still are overthrown Our thoughts are ours, their ends none of our own.
William Shakespeare
Who can control his fate?
William Shakespeare
Virtue preserv'd from fell destruction's blast, Led on by heaven, and crown'd with joy at last.
William Shakespeare
The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose. An evil soul producing holy witness Is like a villain with a smiling cheek, A goodly apple rotten at the heart. O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!
William Shakespeare
The little dogs and all, Tray, Blanch, and Sweetheart-see, they bark at me.
William Shakespeare
true apothecary thy drugs art quick
William Shakespeare
My cake is dough, but I'll in among the rest, Out of hope of all but my share of the feast.
William Shakespeare
That god forbid, that made me first your slave, I should in thought control your times of pleasure, Or at your hand th' account of hours to crave, Being your vassal bound to stay your leisure.
William Shakespeare
Never play with the feelings of others, because you may win the game but the risk is that you will surely lose the person for life time
William Shakespeare
Men have died from time to time, and worms have eaten them, but not for love.
William Shakespeare
Tired with all these for restful death I cry, As to behold desert a beggar born, And needy nothing trimmed in jollity, And purest faith unhappily forsworn.
William Shakespeare
Love moderately long love doth so too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
William Shakespeare
Hope is a lover's staff walk hence with that And manage it against despairing thoughts.
William Shakespeare
How easy it is for the proper-false in woman's waxen hearts to set their forms!
William Shakespeare
