More quotes by William Shakespeare
O, here Will I set up my everlasting rest, And shake the yoke of inauspicious stars From this world-wearied flesh. Eyes, look your last! Arms, take your last embrace! and, lips, O you The doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss A dateless bargain to engrossing death!
William Shakespeare
He makes a July's day short as December.
William Shakespeare
Well, whiles I am a beggar, I will rail, And say there is no sin but to be rich And being rich, my virtue then shall be To say there is no vice but beggary
William Shakespeare
But flies an eagle flight, bold and forth on, Leaving no tract behind.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Away, you mouldy rogue, away!
William Shakespeare
An old man, broken with the storms of state, Is come to lay his weary bones among ye Give him a little earth for charity!
William Shakespeare
What wouldst thou do, old man? Think'st thou that duty shall have dread to speak When power to flattery bows?
William Shakespeare
Courage and comfort, all shall yet go well
William Shakespeare
Thieves for their robbery have authority When judges steal themselves.
William Shakespeare
Eternity was in our lips and eyes.
William Shakespeare
Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore, So do our minutes hasten to their end Each changing place with that which goes before, In sequent toil all forwards do contend.
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
The benediction of these covering heavens Fall on their heads like dew, for they are worthy To inlay heaven with stars.
William Shakespeare
An overflow of good converts to bad.
William Shakespeare
Fear no more the heat o' th' sun Nor the furious winters' rages Thou thy worldly task hast done, Home art gone, and ta'en thy wages. Golden lads and girls all must, As chimney-sweepers, come to dust.
William Shakespeare
