More quotes by William Shakespeare
Gnarling sorrow hath less power to bite The man that mocks at it and sets it light.
William Shakespeare
Sir Andrew Ague-Cheek: I'll stay a month longer. I am a fellow o' the strangest mind i' the world I delight in masques and revels sometimes altogether (He's an oddity in that he enjoys having fun)
William Shakespeare
The old folk, time's doting chronicles.
William Shakespeare
Talking isn't doing. It is a kind of good deed to say well and yet words are not deeds.
William Shakespeare
This England never did, nor never shall, Lie at the proud foot of a conqueror, But when it first did help to wound itself. Now these her princes are come home again, Come the three corners of the world in arms, And we shall shock them. Nought shall make us rue, If England to itself do rest but true.
William Shakespeare
Withal I did infer your lineaments, Being the right idea of your father, Both in your form and nobleness of mind Laid open all your victories in Scotland, Your discipline in war, wisdom in peace, Your bounty, virtue, fair humility Indeed, left nothing fitting for your purpose Untouch'd or slightly handled in discourse.
William Shakespeare
We that are true lovers run into strange capers but as all is mortal in nature, so is all nature in love mortal in folly.
William Shakespeare
Love is the greatest of dreams, yet the worst of nightmares.
William Shakespeare
If thou dost marry, I'll give thee this plague for thy dowry: be thou as chaste as ice, as pure as snow, thou shalt not escape calumny.
William Shakespeare
I can give the loser leave to chide.
William Shakespeare
Omittance is no quittance.
William Shakespeare
Dost thou love hawking? Thou hast hawks will soar Above the morning lark.
William Shakespeare
Let them obey that knows not how to rule.
William Shakespeare
Speak comfortable words.
William Shakespeare
Ay, but to die and go we know not where To lie in cold obstrution and to rot This sensible warm motion to become A kneaded clod and the delighted spirit To bathe in fiery floods or to reside In thrilling regions of thick-ribbed ice To be imprison'd in the viewless winds, And blown with restless violence round about The pendant world.
William Shakespeare
There is a history in all men's lives, Figuring the nature of the times deceased, The which observed, a man may prophesy, With a near aim, of the main chance of things As yet not come to life, which in their seeds And weak beginnings lie intreasured.
William Shakespeare
I am very proud, revengeful, ambitious, with more offences at my beck than I have thoughts to put them in, imagination to give them shape, or time to act them in.
William Shakespeare
Ask God for temp'rance. That's th' appliance only Which your disease requires.
William Shakespeare
There lives within the very flame of love A kind of wick or snuff that will abate it.
William Shakespeare
Love all. Trust a few. Do wrong to none. This above all: to thine own self be true. No legacy is so rich as honesty. Brevity is the soul of wit
William Shakespeare
