More quotes by William Shakespeare
The even mead, that erst brought sweetly forth The freckled cowslip, burnet, and green clover, Wanting the scythe, all uncorrected, rank, Conceives by idleness, and nothing teems But hateful docks, rough thistles, kecksies, burrs, Losing both beauty and utility.
William Shakespeare
Here comes a pair of very strange beasts, which in all tongues are called fools.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Sir, the year growing ancient, Not yet on summer's death nor on the birth Of trembling winter, the fairest flowers o' th' season Are our carnations and streaked gillyvors, Which some call nature's bastards.
William Shakespeare
If one good deed in all my life I did, I do repent it from my very soul.
William Shakespeare
Tis not the many oaths that make the truth But the plain single vow, that is vow'd true.
William Shakespeare
The best is yet to come.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
You kiss by th' book.
William Shakespeare
There's rosemary and rue. These keep Seeming and savor all the winter long. Grace and remembrance be to you.
William Shakespeare
As you are old and reverend, you should be wise.
William Shakespeare
How much an ill word may empoison liking!
William Shakespeare
Equality of two domestic powers Breeds scrupulous faction.
William Shakespeare
So may I, blind fortune leading me, Miss that which one unworthier may attain, And die with grieving.
William Shakespeare
There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so.
William Shakespeare
We, ignorant of ourselves, Beg often our own harms, which the wise powers Deny us for our good so find we profit By losing of our prayers.
William Shakespeare
O sleep, O gentle sleep, Nature's soft nurse, how have I frightened thee, 1710. That thou no more will weigh my eyelids down, And steep my senses in forgetfulness?
William Shakespeare
Proper deformity shows not in the fiend So horrid as in woman.
William Shakespeare
