More quotes by William Shakespeare
While thou livest keep a good tongue in thy head.
William Shakespeare
Let those that play your clowns speak no more than is set down for them.
William Shakespeare
With caution judge of probability. Things deemed unlikely, e'en impossible, experience oft hath proved to be true.
William Shakespeare
When I got enough confidence, the stage was gone. When I was sure of losing, I won. When I needed people the most, they left me. When I learnt to dry my tears, I found a shoulder to cry on. And when I mastered the art of hating, somebody started loving me.
William Shakespeare
What our contempts do often hurl from us, We wish it ours again.
William Shakespeare
Robust grass endures mighty winds loyal ministers emerge through ordeal.
William Shakespeare
Shall I not take mine ease in mine inn but I shall have my pocket picked?
William Shakespeare
Eternity was in our lips and eyes, Bliss in our brows' bent none our parts so poor But was a race of heaven.
William Shakespeare
Miracles are ceased and therefore we must needs admit the means, how things are perfected.
William Shakespeare
I'll give my jewels for a set of beads, My gorgeous palace for a hermitage, My gay apparel for an almsman's gown, My figured goblets for a dish of wood, My scepter for a palmer's walking staff My subjects for a pair of carved saints and my large kingdom for a little grave.
William Shakespeare
Of all base passions, fear is the most accursed.
William Shakespeare
The means that heaven yields must be embraced, and not neglected else, if heaven would, and we will not heaven's offer, we refuse the proffered means of succor and redress.
William Shakespeare
Through tattered clothes, small vices do appear. Robes and furred gowns hide all.
William Shakespeare
Who is so firm that can't be seduced?
William Shakespeare
In sweet music is such art: killing care and grief of heart fall asleep, or hearing, die.
William Shakespeare
There is no slander in an allowed fool, though he do nothing but rail.
William Shakespeare
Farewell, my sister, fare thee well. The elements be kind to thee, and make Thy spirits all of comfort: fare thee well.
William Shakespeare
Before thee stands this fair Hesperides, With golden fruit, but dangerous to be touched For death-like dragons here affright thee hard.
William Shakespeare
Fair, kind, and true is all my argument, Fair, kind, and true varying to other words And in this change is my invention spent, Three themes in one, which wondrous scope affords.
William Shakespeare
The moon of Rome, chaste as the icicle that's curded by the frost from purest snow.
William Shakespeare
