More quotes by William Shakespeare
Love sees with the heart and not with mind.
William Shakespeare
If they love they know not why, they hate upon no better ground, they hate upon no better a ground
William Shakespeare
Shine out fair sun, till I have bought a glass, That I may see my shadow as I pass.
William Shakespeare
My glass shall not persuade me I am old, So long as youth and thou are of one date But when in thee time's furrows I behold, Then look I death my days should expiate.
William Shakespeare
My falcon now is sharp and passing empty, and till she stoop she must not be full-gorged, for then she never looks upon her lure.
William Shakespeare
Not proud you have, but thankful that you have. Proud can I never be of what I hate, but thankful even for hate that is meant love.
William Shakespeare
Taffeta phrases, silken terms precise, Three-piled hyperboles, spruce affection, Figures pedantical--these summer flies Have blown me full of maggot ostentation.
William Shakespeare
I could be well content To entertain the lag-end of my life With quiet hours.
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
I know a place where the wild thyme blows, where oxlips and the nodding violet grows.
William Shakespeare
I will speak daggers to her, but use none.
William Shakespeare
Had I but served my God with half the zeal I served my king, he would not in mine age have left me naked to mine enemies.
William Shakespeare
A little fire is quickly trodden out, Which, being suffer'd, rivers cannot quench.
William Shakespeare
I cannot but remember such things were that were most precious to me.
William Shakespeare
These flowers are like the pleasures of the world.
William Shakespeare
Now the time is come, That France must veil her lofty-plumed crest, And let her head fall into England's lap.
William Shakespeare
Tis gold Which buys admittance--oft it doth--yea, and makes Diana's rangers false themselves, yield up This deer to th' stand o' th' stealer: and 'tis gold Which makes the true man kill'd and saves the thief, Nay, sometimes hangs both thief and true man.
William Shakespeare
He is as full of valor as of kindness. Princely in both.
William Shakespeare
Though it make the unskillful laugh, cannot but make the judicious grieve.
William Shakespeare
The lowest ebb is the turn of the tide. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow We are such stuff as dreams are made of.
William Shakespeare
