Know my name is lost, By treason's tooth bare-gnawn and canker-bit Yet am I noble as the adversary I come to cope.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
Two households, both alike in dignity In fair Verona, where we lay our scene From ancient grudge break to new mutiny Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life Whose misadventured piteous overthrows Do with their death bury their parents' strife.
William Shakespeare
It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.
William Shakespeare
One sin, I know, another doth provoke. Murder's as near to lust as flame to smoke.
William Shakespeare
Can one desire too much of a good thing?
William Shakespeare
What, shall one of us, That struck for the foremost man of all this world But for supporting robbers--shall we now Contaminate our fingers with base bribes, And sell the mighty space of our large honors For so much trash as may be grasped thus?
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
My love to thee is sound, sans crack or flaw.
William Shakespeare
Good hay, sweet hay, hath no fellow.
William Shakespeare
Every good servant does not all commands.
William Shakespeare
To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.
William Shakespeare
I'll break my staff, bury it certain fathoms in the earth, and deeper than did ever plummet sound, I'll drown my book!
William Shakespeare
More fools know Jack Fool than Jack Fool knows.
William Shakespeare
No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity. But I know none, and therefore am no beast.
William Shakespeare
Silence is the perfectest herault of joy. I were but little happy if I could say how much.
William Shakespeare
Thou seest we are not all alone unhappy: This wide and universal theatre Presents more woeful pageants than the scene Wherein we play in.
William Shakespeare
For this relief, much thanks
William Shakespeare
Come the three corners of the world in arms, and we shall shock them.
William Shakespeare
There's daggers in men's smiles.
William Shakespeare
If I lose my honor, I lose myself: better I were not yours Than yours so branchless.
William Shakespeare
Assume a virtue, if you have it not. That monster, custom, who all sense doth eat Of habits devil, is angel yet in this.
William Shakespeare
