More quotes by William Shakespeare
My lord, they say five moons were seen to-night-- Four fixed, and the fifth did whirl about The other four in wondrous motion.
William Shakespeare
The liquid drops of tears that you have shed Shall come again, transform'd to orient pearl, Advantaging their loan with interest Of ten times double gain of happiness.
William Shakespeare
Plutus himself, That knows the tinct and multiplying med'cine, Hath not in nature's mystery more science Than I have in this ring.
William Shakespeare
That truth should be silent I had almost forgot. (Enobarbus)
William Shakespeare
He that will have a cake out of the wheat must tarry the grinding.
William Shakespeare
An envious fever of pale and bloodless emulation.
William Shakespeare
And what art thou, thou idol Ceremony? What kind of god art thou, that suffer'st more Of mortal griefs than do thy worshippers?
William Shakespeare
The attempt and not the deed confounds us.
William Shakespeare
And so, from hour to hour, we ripe and ripe. And then, from hour to hour, we rot and rot And thereby hangs a tale.
William Shakespeare
The sense of death is most in apprehension, And the poor beetle, that we tread upon, In corporal sufferance finds a pang as great As when a giant dies.
William Shakespeare
No might nor greatness in mortality Can censure 'scape back- wounding calumny The whitest virtue strikes. What king so strong Can tie the gall up in the slanderous tongue?
William Shakespeare
Don't waste your love on somebody, who doesn't value it.
William Shakespeare
By Heaven, I love thee better than myself
William Shakespeare
I knew when seven justices could not take up a quarrel, but when the parties were met themselves, one of them thought but of an If, as, 'If you said so, then I said so' and they shook hands and swore brothers. Your If is the only peacemaker much virtue in If.
William Shakespeare
Never durst poet touch a pen to write Until his ink were temper'd with Love's sighs.
William Shakespeare
Avaunt, you cullions!
William Shakespeare
I understand thy kisses, and thou mine, And that's a feeling disputation.
William Shakespeare
Hadst thou no poison mixed, no sharp-ground knife, No sudden mean of death, though ne'er so mean, But 'banished' to kill me--'banished'? O friar, the damned use that word in hell Howling attends it! How hast thou the heart, Being a divine, a ghostly confessor, A sin-absolver, and my friend professed, To mangle me with that word 'banished'?
William Shakespeare
If her breath were as terrible as her terminations, there were no living near her, she would infect to the north star!
William Shakespeare
You have too much respect upon the world They lose it that do buy it with much care
William Shakespeare
