More quotes by William Shakespeare
Your bait of falsehood takes this carp of truth, And thus do we of wisdom and of reach, With windlasses and with assays of bias, By indirections find directions out.
William Shakespeare
A woman is a dish for the gods, if the devil dress her not.
William Shakespeare
Foul fiend of France and hag of all despite, Encompassed with thy lustful paramours, Becomes it thee to taunt his valiant age And twit with cowardice a man half dead?
William Shakespeare
Be patient, for the world is broad and wide.
William Shakespeare
One fairer than my love? The all-seeing sun Ne'er saw her match since first the world begun.
William Shakespeare
The Devil hath power To assume a pleasing shape.
William Shakespeare
Speak on, but be not over-tedious.
William Shakespeare
Excellent wretch! Perdition catch my soul But I do love thee! and when I love thee not, Chaos is come again.
William Shakespeare
Wise men never sit and wail their loss, but cheerily seek how to redress their harms.
William Shakespeare
To be generous, guiltless, and of a free disposition is to take those things for bird-bolts that you deem cannon-bullets.
William Shakespeare
Modest wisdom plucks me from over-credulous haste.
William Shakespeare
These violent delights have violent ends And in their triumph die, like fire and powder, Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey Is loathsome in his own deliciousness And in the taste confounds the appetite. Therefore love moderately long love doth so Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
William Shakespeare
O polished perturbation! golden care! That keep'st the ports of slumber open wide To many a watchful night.
William Shakespeare
There is no more mercy in him than there is milk in a male tiger.
William Shakespeare
Though I am not naturally honest, I am sometimes so by chance.
William Shakespeare
Though it make the unskillful laugh, cannot but make the judicious grieve.
William Shakespeare
This wimpled, whining, purblind, wayward boy, this Senior Junior, giant dwarf...Cupid.
William Shakespeare
I see that the fashion wears out more apparel than the man.
William Shakespeare
Under the colour of commending him I have access my own love to prefer But Silvia is too fair, too true, too holy, To be corrupted with my worthless gifts.
William Shakespeare
Methinks sometimes I have no more wit than a Christian.
William Shakespeare
