More quotes by William Shakespeare
Bring me a constant woman to her husband, One that ne'er dream'd a joy beyond his pleasure, And to that woman, when she has done most, Yet will I add an honour-a great patience.
William Shakespeare
To beguile the time, look like the time.
William Shakespeare
Is this a dagger which I see before me, The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee. I have thee not, and yet I see thee still. Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible To feeling as to sight? or art thou but A dagger of the mind, a false creation, Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?
William Shakespeare
Beauty itself doth of itself persuade the eyes of men without an orator.
William Shakespeare
Small herbs have grace, great weeds do grow apace.
William Shakespeare
I am as vigilant as a cat to steal cream.
William Shakespeare
Wish chastely, and love dearly.
William Shakespeare
I am thy father's spirit Doom'd for a certain term to walk the night And, for the day, confin'd to fast in fires, Till the foul crimes, done in my days of nature, Are burnt and purg'd away.
William Shakespeare
When we are born we cry that we are come to this great stage of fools.
William Shakespeare
Lords, knights and gentlemen, what I should say My tears gainsay for every word I speak, Ye see I drink the water of my eye.
William Shakespeare
God defend me from that Welsh fairy, Lest he transform me to a piece of cheese!
William Shakespeare
What e'er you are That in this desert inaccessible, Under the shade of melancholy boughs, Lose and neglect the creeping hours of time.
William Shakespeare
Why, I can smile and murder whiles I smile, And cry 'content' to that which grieves my heart, And wet my cheeks with artificial tears, And frame my face for all occasions
William Shakespeare
I'll speak in a monstrous little voice.
William Shakespeare
Through tattered clothes, small vices do appear. Robes and furred gowns hide all.
William Shakespeare
And his unkindness may defeat my life, But never taint my love.
William Shakespeare
When you do dance, I wish you a wave o' the sea, that you might ever do nothing but that.
William Shakespeare
Because I cannot flatter and look fair, Smile in men's faces, smooth, deceive, and cog, Duck with French nods and apish courtesy, I must be held a rancorous enemy.
William Shakespeare
Here comes a man of comfort, whose advice Hath often stilled my brawling discontent.
William Shakespeare
You cannot, sir, take from me any thing that I will more willingly part withal: except my life, except my life, except my life.
William Shakespeare
