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.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
Silence is the perfectest herault of joy. I were but little happy if I could say how much.
William Shakespeare
One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.
William Shakespeare
Lawn as white as driven snow Cyprus black as e'er was crow Gloves as sweet as damask roses.
William Shakespeare
Zounds! I was never so bethumped with words since I first called my brother's father dad.
William Shakespeare
My life, my joy, my food, my ail the world!
William Shakespeare
Like a man made after supper of a cheese-paring: when a' was naked, he was, for all the world, like a forked radish, with a head fantastically carved upon it with a knife.
William Shakespeare
And nothing can we call our own but death And that small model of the barren earth Which serves as paste and cover to our bones. For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground And tell sad stories of the death of kings.
William Shakespeare
Benvolio- By my head, here come the Capulets. Mercutio- By my heel, I care not.
William Shakespeare
Virtue and genuine graces in themselves speak what no words can utter.
William Shakespeare
As you are old and reverend, you should be wise.
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
I pray thee cease thy counsel, Which falls into mine ears as profitless as water in a sieve.
William Shakespeare
Now the melancholy God protect thee, and the tailor make thy garments of changeable taffeta, for thy mind is opal.
William Shakespeare
You speak an infinite deal of nothing.
William Shakespeare
I that please some, try all, both joy and terror Of good and bad, that makes and unfolds error.
William Shakespeare
Graze on my lips and if those hills be dry, stray lower, where the pleasant fountains lie.
William Shakespeare
Be still prepared for death: and death or life shall thereby be the sweeter.
William Shakespeare
But love, first learned in a lady's eyes, Lives not alone immured in the brain But, with the motion of all elements, Courses as swift as thought in every power, And gives to every power a double power, Above their functions and their offices.
William Shakespeare
Men that make Envy and crooked malice nourishment, Dare bite the best.
William Shakespeare
I have almost forgotten the taste of fears: The time has been, my senses would have cool’d to hear a night-shriek and my fell of hair would at a dismal treatise rouse and stir as life were in’t: I have supt full with horrors Direness, familiar to my slaughterous thoughts, cannot once start me.
William Shakespeare
