All the contagion of the south light on you, You shames of Rome! you herd of--boils and plagues Plaster you o'er that you may be abhorr'd Further than seen, and one infect another Against the wind a mile!

More quotes by 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
Who could refrain that had a heart to love and in that heart courage to make love known?
William Shakespeare
The love of wicked men converts to fear That fear to hate, and hate turns one or both To worthy danger and deserved death.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
A light heart lives long.
William Shakespeare
All that glisters is not gold Often have you heard that told.
William Shakespeare
Very good orators, when they are out, they will spit and for lovers, lacking--God warn us!--matter, the cleanliest shift is to kiss.
William Shakespeare
A dream itself is but a shadow.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Tired with all these for restful death I cry, As to behold desert a beggar born, And needy nothing trimmed in jollity, And purest faith unhappily forsworn.
William Shakespeare
Trip over love, you can get up. Fall in love and you fall forever. Anyone can catch your eye, but it takes someone special to catch your heart. Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs.
William Shakespeare
To beguile the time, look like the time.
William Shakespeare
O! she doth teach the torches to burn bright It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night Like a rich jewel in an Ethiop's ear Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear. - Romeo -
William Shakespeare
Unless the old adage must be verified, That beggars mounted, run their horse to death.
William Shakespeare
To persist in doing wrong extenuates not the wrong, but makes it much more heavy.
William Shakespeare
Set honour in one eye and death i' the other, And I will look on both indifferently.
William Shakespeare
Thine eyes I love, and they as pitying me, Knowing thy heart torment me with disdain, Have put on black, and loving mourners be, Looking with pretty ruth upon my pain.
William Shakespeare
She told her, while she kept it, 'Twould make her amiable and subdue my father Entirely to her love, but if she lost it Or made a gift of it, my father's eye Should hold her loathed and his spirits should hunt After new fancies.
William Shakespeare
