More quotes by William Shakespeare
Instead of weeping when a tragedy occurs in a songbird's life, it sings away its grief. I believe we could well follow the pattern of our feathered friends.
William Shakespeare
He's truly valiant that can wisely suffer The worst that man can breathe, and make his wrongs His outsides, to wear them like his raiment, carelessly, And ne'er prefer his injuries to his heart, To bring it into danger.
William Shakespeare
What's his offense? Groping for trout in a peculiar river.
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
The thing of courage As rous'd with rage doth sympathise, And, with an accent tun'd in self-same key, Retorts to chiding fortune.
William Shakespeare
O powerful love, that in some respects makes a beast a man, in some other, a man a beast.
William Shakespeare
Things done well and with a care, exempt themselves from fear.
William Shakespeare
Under loves heavy burden do I sink. --Romeo
William Shakespeare
O, speak again, bright angel! for thou art As glorious to this night, being o'er my head As is a winged messenger of heaven
William Shakespeare
It is my soul that calls upon my name How silver-sweet sound lovers' tongues by night, like softest music to attending ears! -Romeo
William Shakespeare
Look on beauty, And you shall see 'tis purchased by the weight, Which therein works a miracle in nature, Making them lightest that wear most of it.
William Shakespeare
To show an unfelt sorrow is an office Which the false man does easy.
William Shakespeare
A countenance more in sorrow than in anger.
William Shakespeare
If by chance I talk a little wild, forgive me I had it from my father.
William Shakespeare
We must not stint Our necessary actions in the fear To cope malicious censurers, which ever, As rav'nous fishes, do a vessel follow That is new-trimmed, but benefit no further Than vainly longing.
William Shakespeare
Scorn, at first, makes after-love the more.
William Shakespeare
Thou ominous and fearful owl of death.
William Shakespeare
A cup of hot wine with not a drop of allaying Tiber in 't.
William Shakespeare
The robbed that smiles, steals something from the thief.
William Shakespeare
Tis not a year or two shows us a man: They are all but stomachs, and we all but food They eat us hungerly, and when they are full They belch us.
William Shakespeare
