Between the acting of a dreadful thing And the first motion, all the interim is Like a phantasma or a hideous dream.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
But indeed an old religious uncle of mine taught me to speak, who was in his youth an inland man one that knew courtship too well, for there he fell in love. I have heard him read many lectures against it and I thank God I am not a woman, to be touched with so many giddy offenses as he hath generally taxed their whole sex withal.
William Shakespeare
O, what a world of vile ill-favored faults, looks handsome in three hundred pounds a year!
William Shakespeare
Devils soonest tempt, resembling spirits of light.
William Shakespeare
His forward voice now is to speak well of his friend. His backward voice is to utter foul speeches and to detract.
William Shakespeare
A good leg will fall a straight back will stoop a black beard will turn white a curl'd pate will grow bald a fair face will wither a full eye will wax hollow: but a good heart, Kate, is the sun and the moon or, rather, the sun, and not the moon, — for it shines bright, and never changes, but keeps his course truly.
William Shakespeare
But as the unthought-on accident is guilty To what we wildly do, so we profess Ourselves to be the slaves of chance, and flies Of every wind that blows.
William Shakespeare
I count myself in nothing else so happy as in a soul remembering my good Friends
William Shakespeare
Let's all cry peace, freedom, and liberty!
William Shakespeare
You told a lie, an odious damned lie Upon my soul, a lie, a wicked lie.
William Shakespeare
Fortune is merry, And in this mood will give us anything.
William Shakespeare
Strikes deeper, grows with more pernicious root.
William Shakespeare
O father Abram, what these Christians are, Whose own hard dealing teaches them suspect The thoughts of others!
William Shakespeare
I bear a charmed life.
William Shakespeare
Let not our babbling dreams affright our souls Conscience is but a work that cowards use, Devised at first to keep the strong in awe: Our strong arms be our conscience, swords our law!
William Shakespeare
Since I do purpose to marry, I will think nothing to any purpose that the world can say against it and therefore never floutat me for what I have said against it for man is a giddy thing, and this is my conclusion.
William Shakespeare
Stay, my lord, And let your reason with your choler question What 'tis you go about: to climb steep hills Requires slow pace at first: anger is like A full-hot horse, who being allow'd his way, Self-mettle tires him. Not a man in England Can advise me like you: be to yourself As you would to your friend.
William Shakespeare
Lay aside life-harming heaviness, And entertain a cheerful disposition.
William Shakespeare
I am a great eater of beef, and I believe that does harm to my wit.
William Shakespeare
If music be the food of love, play on, Give me excess of it that surfeiting, The appetite may sicken, and so die.
William Shakespeare
When the age is in, the wit is out
