More quotes by William Shakespeare
Ay, in the catalogue ye go for men As hounds, and greyhounds, mongrels, spaniels, curs, Shoughs, water-rugs, and demi-wolves, are 'clept All by the name of dogs: the valued file Distinguishes the swift, the slow, the subtle, The housekeeper, the hunter, every one According to the gift which bounteous nature Hath in him closed.
William Shakespeare
One sin, I know, another doth provoke. Murder's as near to lust as flame to smoke.
William Shakespeare
But men may construe things after their fashion, Clean from the purpose of the things themselves.
William Shakespeare
It were a grief so brief to part with thee. Farewell.
William Shakespeare
A plague of sighing and grief! It blows a man up like a bladder.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Sin will pluck on sin.
William Shakespeare
Well-apparel'd April on the heel Of limping Winter treads.

William Shakespeare
Love and meekness, lord, Become a churchman better than ambition: Win straying souls with modesty again, Cast none away.
William Shakespeare
If this were played upon a stage now, I could condemn it as an improbable fiction.
William Shakespeare
Who seeks, and will not take, when once 'tis offer'd, Shall never find it more.
William Shakespeare
My love is thine to teach teach it but how, And thou shalt see how apt it is to learn. Any hard lesson that may do thee good.
William Shakespeare
A maiden hath no tongue--but thought.
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
And gentlemen in England now-a-bed Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here, And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day.
William Shakespeare
What: is the jay more precious than the lark because his feathers are more beautiful?
William Shakespeare
Strikes deeper, grows with more pernicious root.
William Shakespeare
The king's name is a tower of strength.
William Shakespeare
