Why, universal plodding poisons up The nimble spirits in the arteries, As motion and long-during action tires The sinewy vigor of the traveller.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
But indeed an old religious uncle of mine taught me to speak, who was in his youth an inland man one that knew courtship too well, for there he fell in love. I have heard him read many lectures against it and I thank God I am not a woman, to be touched with so many giddy offenses as he hath generally taxed their whole sex withal.
William Shakespeare
So many horrid Ghosts.
William Shakespeare
O father Abram, what these Christians are, Whose own hard dealing teaches them suspect The thoughts of others!
William Shakespeare
The eagle suffers little birds to sing, And is not careful what they mean thereby, Knowing that with the shadow of his wings He can at pleasure stint their melody: Even so mayest thou the giddy men of Rome.
William Shakespeare
This sanguine coward, this bed-presser, this horseback-breaker, this huge hill of flesh!
William Shakespeare
What is a man, if his chief good and market of his time be but to sleep and feed? a beast, no more.
William Shakespeare
Conscience doth make cowards of us all.
William Shakespeare
No man's pie is freed From his ambitious finger.
William Shakespeare
The sense of death is most in apprehension, And the poor beetle, that we tread upon, In corporal sufferance finds a pang as great As when a giant dies.
William Shakespeare
The setting sun, and the music at the close, As the last taste of sweets, is sweetest last, Writ in rememberance more than long things past.
William Shakespeare
Sweets grown common lose their dear delight.
William Shakespeare
Unnatural deeds Do breed unnatural troubles: infected minds To their deaf pillows will discharge their secrets.
William Shakespeare
Welcome ever smiles, and farewell goes out sighing.
William Shakespeare
Nay, had I pow'r, I should Pour the sweet milk of concord into hell, Uproar the universal peace, confound All unity on earth.
William Shakespeare
Death makes no conquest of this conqueror: For now he lives in fame, though not in life.
William Shakespeare
Their understanding Begins to swell and the approaching tide Will shortly fill the reasonable shores That now lie foul and muddy.
William Shakespeare
Teeth hadst thou in thy head when thou wast born, To signify thou camest to bite the world.
William Shakespeare
All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players: they have their exits and their entrances and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages.
William Shakespeare
A peevish self-willed harlotry it is. *She’s a stubborn little brat.*
William Shakespeare
All men's faces are true, whatsome'er their hands are.
William Shakespeare
