More quotes by William Shakespeare
I think the King is but a man as I am: the violet smells to him as it doth to me.
William Shakespeare
Love yourself and in that love not unconsidered leave your honor.
William Shakespeare
I have trod a measure, I have flattered a lady, I have been politic with my friend, smooth with mine enemy.
William Shakespeare
But here's the joy: my friend and I are one, Sweet flattery!
William Shakespeare
All offences come from the heart.
William Shakespeare
Rest you fair, good signior Your worship was the last man in our mouths.
William Shakespeare
And so, from hour to hour, we ripe and ripe. And then, from hour to hour, we rot and rot And thereby hangs a tale.
William Shakespeare
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. If this be error and upon me prov'd, I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd.
William Shakespeare
Love is my sin, and thy dear virtue hate, Hate of my sin, grounded on sinful loving.
William Shakespeare
I will be treble-sinewed, hearted, breathed, And fight maliciously for when mine hours Were nice and lucky, men did ransom lives Of me for jests but now I'll set my teeth And send to darkness all that stop me.
William Shakespeare
When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions.
William Shakespeare
I take thee at thy word: Call me but love, and I'll be new baptized Henceforth I never will be Romeo.
William Shakespeare
Thou whoreson zed! Thou unnecessary letter! My lord, if you will give me leave, I will tread this unbolted villain into mortar, and daub the wall of a jakes with him. *all cheer for Shakespearean insults*
William Shakespeare
I am asham'd that women are so simple To offer war where they should kneel for peace.
William Shakespeare
If ever thou shalt love, In the sweet pangs of it remember me For such as I am all true lovers are, Unstaid and skittish in all motions else Save in the constant image of the creature That is beloved.
William Shakespeare
Those that do teach young babes Do it with gentle means and easy tasks.
William Shakespeare
Haste is needful in a desperate case.
William Shakespeare
Speak, what trade art thou? Why, sir, a carpenter. Where is thy leather apron and thy rule? What does thou with thy best apparel on?
William Shakespeare
Why, courage then! what cannot be avoided 'Twere childish weakness to lament or fear.
William Shakespeare
A woman moved is like a fountain troubled, Muddy, ill-seeming, thick, bereft of beauty.
William Shakespeare
