A stirring dwarf we do allowance give Before a sleeping giant.
William Shakespeare
Such thanks as fits a king's remembrance.
William Shakespeare
If it be you that stirs these daughters' hearts Against their father, fool me not so much To bear it tamely touch me with noble anger, And let not women's weapons, water drops, Stain my man's cheeks.
William Shakespeare
We may outrun By violent swiftness And lose by over-running.
William Shakespeare
A substitute shines brightly as a king Until a king be by, and then his state Empties itself, as dot an inland brook Into the main of waters.
William Shakespeare
Olivia: What's a drunken man like, fool? Feste: Like a drowned man, a fool, and a madman: one draught above heat makes him a fool the second mads him and a third drowns him.
William Shakespeare
Where every something, being blent together turns to a wild of nothing.
William Shakespeare
He that is thy friend indeed, He will help thee in thy need: If thou sorrow, he will weep If thou wake, he cannot sleep: Thus of every grief in heart He with thee does bear a part. These are certain signs to know Faithful friend from flattering foe.
William Shakespeare
Like a barber's chair that fits all buttocks.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
A Loud Laugh Bespeaks a Vacant Mind!
William Shakespeare
We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
William Shakespeare
... I am At war 'twixt will and will not.
William Shakespeare
A tardiness in nature, Which often leaves the history unspoke, That it intends to do.
William Shakespeare
Vanity keeps persons in favor with themselves who are out of favor with all others.
William Shakespeare
The gods are just, and of our pleasant vices Make instruments to plague us.
William Shakespeare
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer's lease hath all too short a date . . .
William Shakespeare
That, sir, which serves and seeks for gain, And follows but for form, Will pack, when it begins to rain, And leave thee in a storm.
William Shakespeare
We must follow, not force Providence.
William Shakespeare
If by chance I talk a little wild, forgive me I had it from my father.
William Shakespeare
