More quotes by William Shakespeare
To fear the foe, since fear oppresseth strength, gives in your weakness strength unto your foe.
William Shakespeare
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
What Time hath scanted men in hair, he hath given them in wit.
William Shakespeare
I can hardly forbear hurling things at him.
William Shakespeare
Sweets to the sweet.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
To unpathed waters, undreamed shores.
William Shakespeare
If he be so resolved, I can o'ersway him for he loves to hear That unicorns may be betrayed with trees And bears with glasses, elephants with holes, Lions with toils, and men with flatterers
William Shakespeare
O Death, made proud with pure and princely beauty!
William Shakespeare
Say as you think and speak it from your souls.
William Shakespeare
If you can look into the seeds of time, and say which grain will grow and which will not, speak then unto me.
William Shakespeare
And either victory, or else a grave.
William Shakespeare
For night's swift dragons cut the clouds full fast, And yonder shines Aurora's harbinger At whose approach ghosts wandring here and there Troop home to church-yards.... For fear lest day should look their shames upon, They willfully exile themselves from light, And must for aye consort with black brow'd night.
William Shakespeare
Shall remain! Hear you this Triton of the minnows? Mark you His absolute 'shall'?
William Shakespeare
Do not cast away an honest man for a villain's accusation.
William Shakespeare
I have sounded the very base-string of humility.
William Shakespeare
Do you see yonder cloud that’s almost in shape of a camel? Polonius: By the mass, and ‘tis like a camel, indeed. Hamlet: Methinks it is like a weasel. Polonius: It is backed like a weasel. Hamlet: Or like a whale? Polonius: Very like a whale.
William Shakespeare
Some there be that shadows kiss Such have but a shadow's bliss.
William Shakespeare
I'll be supposed upon a book, his face is the worst thing about him.
William Shakespeare
Thou hast her, France let her be thine, for we Have no such daughter, nor shall ever see That face of hers again. Therefore be gone Without our grace, our love, our benison.
William Shakespeare
