More quotes by William Shakespeare
You are yoked with a lamb, That carries anger as the flint bears fire Who, much enforced, shows a hasty spank, And straight is cold again.
William Shakespeare
Like a dull actor now, I have forgot my part, and I am out, Even to a full disgrace.
William Shakespeare
The iron tongue of Midnight hath told twelve lovers, to bed 'tis almost fairy time. I fear we shall outstep the coming morn as much as we this night over-watch'd.
William Shakespeare
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.
William Shakespeare
Glory grows guilty of detested crimes.
William Shakespeare
And be these juggling friends no more believ'd, That palter with us in a double sense That keep the word of promise to our ear And break it to our hope.
William Shakespeare
You cannot, sir, take from me any thing that I will more willingly part withal: except my life, except my life, except my life.
William Shakespeare
Cursed be the hand that made these fatal holes.
William Shakespeare
A good heart is the sun and the moon or, rather, the sun and not the moon, for it shines bright and never changes.
William Shakespeare
What a piece of work is a man
William Shakespeare
Constant you are, But yet a woman and for secrecy, No lady closer for I well believe Thou wilt not utter what thou dost not know.
William Shakespeare
I do not hate a proud man, as I do hate the engendering of toads.
William Shakespeare
She speaks poniards, and every word stabs: if her breath were as terrible as her terminations, there were no living near her she would infect to the north star. I would not marry her, though she were endowed with all that Adam bad left him before he transgressed.
William Shakespeare
Withal I did infer your lineaments, Being the right idea of your father, Both in your form and nobleness of mind Laid open all your victories in Scotland, Your discipline in war, wisdom in peace, Your bounty, virtue, fair humility Indeed, left nothing fitting for your purpose Untouch'd or slightly handled in discourse.
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
The heavenly-harness'd team Begins his golden progress in the east.
William Shakespeare
Can it be chat modesty may more betray Our sense than woman's lightness?
William Shakespeare
To pore upon a book, to seek the light of truth.
William Shakespeare
This above all to thine own self be true.
William Shakespeare
O sir, you are old nature in you stands on the very verge of her confine you should be ruled and led by some discretion, that discerns your fate better than you yourself.
William Shakespeare
