Let's take the instant by the forward top For we are old, and on our quick'st decrees The inaudible and noiseless foot of Time Steals ere we can effect them.
William Shakespeare
My love admits no qualifying dross
William Shakespeare
Romeo: Courage, man the hurt cannot be much. Mercutio: No, 'tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church-door but 'tis enough, 'twill serve. Ask for me tomorrow, and you shall find me a grave man.
William Shakespeare
Beggar that I am, I am even poor in thanks, but I thank you and sure, dear friends, my thanks are too dear a halfpenny.
William Shakespeare
But like of each thing that in season grows.
William Shakespeare
Bid me run, and I will strive with things impossible.
William Shakespeare
There's no better sign of a brave mind than a hard hand.
William Shakespeare
Two loves I have, of comfort and despair, Which like two spirits do suggest me still: The better angel is a man right fair, The worser spirit a woman coloured ill.
William Shakespeare
The bird that hath been limed in a bush, with trembling wings misdoubteth every bush.
William Shakespeare
God grant us patience!
William Shakespeare
Reason thus with life: If I do lose thee, I do lose a thing That none but fools would keep.
William Shakespeare
Desperate times breed desperate measures
William Shakespeare
I do not set my life at a pin's fee, And for my soul, what can it do to that, Being a thing immortal as itself?
William Shakespeare
And send him many years of sunshine days!
William Shakespeare
When I have plucked the rose, I cannot give it vital growth again, It needs must wither. I'll smell it on the tree.
William Shakespeare
I have lived long enough. My way of life is to fall into the sere, the yellow leaf, and that which should accompany old age, as honor, love, obedience, troops of friends I must not look to have.
William Shakespeare
Adieu! I have too grieved a heart to take a tedious leave.
William Shakespeare
Coward dogs most spend their mouths when what they seem to threaten runs far before them.
William Shakespeare
But that the dread of something after death, The undiscover'd country from whose bourn No traveller returns, puzzles the will And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of?
William Shakespeare
Lay her i' the earth: And from her fair and unpolluted flesh May violets spring! I tell thee, churlish priest, A ministering angel shall my sister be, When thou liest howling. HAMLET. What, the fair Ophelia! QUEEN GERTRUDE. Sweets to the sweet: farewell!
William Shakespeare
