More quotes by William Shakespeare
O serpent heart hid with a flowering face! Did ever a dragon keep so fair a cave? Beautiful tyrant, feind angelical, dove feather raven, wolvish-ravening lamb! Despised substance of devinest show, just opposite to what thou justly seemest - A dammed saint, an honourable villain!
William Shakespeare
But now I am cabined, cribbed, confined, bound in To saucy doubts and fears.
William Shakespeare
O most delicate fiend! Who is't can read a woman? Is there more?
William Shakespeare
Flower of this purple dye, Hit with Cupid's archery, Sink in apple of his eye.
William Shakespeare
I will speak daggers to her, but use none.
William Shakespeare
Not from the stars do I my judgement pluck, And yet methinks I have astronomy. But not to tell of good or evil luck, Of plagues, of dearths, or season's quality Nor can I fortune to brief minutes tell ... Or say with princes if it shall go well.
William Shakespeare
Thrice is he arm'd that hath his quarrel just, And he but naked, though lock'd up in steel, Whose conscience with injustice is corrupted.
William Shakespeare
O that my tongue were in the thunder's mouth! Then with passion would I shake the world.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Love and meekness, lord, Become a churchman better than ambition: Win straying souls with modesty again, Cast none away.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.
William Shakespeare
When love begins to sicken and decay it uses an enforced ceremony.
William Shakespeare
I'll be at charges for a looking-glass And entertain a score or two of tailors To study fashions to adorn my body: Since I am crept in favor with myself, I will maintain it with some little cost.
William Shakespeare
Last scene of all that ends this strange, eventful history, is second childishness and mere oblivion. I am sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
William Shakespeare
All offences come from the heart.
William Shakespeare
Though age from folly could not give me freedom, It does from childishness.
William Shakespeare
I have been long a sleeper but I trust My absence doth neglect no great design Which by my presence might have been concluded.
William Shakespeare
A little more than kin, and less than kind.
William Shakespeare
He that has a house to put's head in has a good head-piece.
William Shakespeare
