More quotes by William Shakespeare
Costly thy habit [dress] as thy purse can buy But not expressed in fancy - rich, not gaudy. For the apparel oft proclaims the man.
William Shakespeare
Canst thou, O partial sleep, give thy repose to the wet sea-boy in an hour so rude, and in the calmest and most stillest night, with all appliances and means to boot, deny it to a king?
William Shakespeare
It easeth some, though none it ever cured, to think their dolour others have endured.
William Shakespeare
Unless hours were cups of sack, and minutes capons, and clocks the tongues of bawds, and dials the signs of leaping-houses, and the blessed sun himself a fair hot wench in flame-colored taffeta, I see no reason why thou shouldst be so superfluous to demand the time of the day.
William Shakespeare
She moves me not, or not removes at least affection's edge in me.
William Shakespeare
Her virtues, graced with external gifts, Do breed love's settled passions in my heart And like as rigour of tempestuous gusts Provokes the mightiest hulk against the tide, So am I driven by breath of her renown Either to suffer shipwreck or arrive Where I may have fruition of her love.
William Shakespeare
Remembrance of things past.
William Shakespeare
My crown is in my heart, not on my head.
William Shakespeare
Fit for the mountains and the barbarous caves, where manners ne'er were preached.
William Shakespeare
When I was at home I was in a better place
William Shakespeare
O, let me kiss that hand! KING LEAR: Let me wipe it first it smells of mortality.
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
For now I stand as one upon a rock environed with a wilderness of sea, who marks the waxing tide grow wave by wave, expecting ever when some envious surge will in his brinish bowels swallow him.
William Shakespeare
I am indeed, sir, a surgeon to old shoes when they are in great danger I recover them.
William Shakespeare
No metal can--no, not the hangman's axe--bear half the keenness of thy sharp envy.
William Shakespeare
Take no repulse, whatever she doth say For 'get you gone,' she doth not mean 'away.' Flatter and praise, commend, extol their graces Though ne'er so black, say they have angels' faces
William Shakespeare
Tis beauty that doth oft make women proud but, God He knows, thy share thereof is small.
William Shakespeare
I crave fit disposition for my wife Due reference of place, and exhibition With such accommodation, and besort, As levels with her breeding.
William Shakespeare
Be not thy tongue thy own shame's orator.
William Shakespeare
When he shall die, Take him and cut him out in little stars, And he will make the face of heaven so fine That all the world will be in love with night And pay no worship to the garish sun.
William Shakespeare
