More quotes by William Shakespeare
Two households, both alike in dignity In fair Verona, where we lay our scene From ancient grudge break to new mutiny Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life Whose misadventured piteous overthrows Do with their death bury their parents' strife.
William Shakespeare
Fondling,' she saith, 'since I have hemm'd thee here Within the circuit of this ivory pale, I'll be a park, and thou shalt be my deer Feed where thou wilt, on mountain or in dale: Graze on my lips, and if those hills be dry, Stray lower, where the pleasant fountains lie.
William Shakespeare
Flower of this purple dye, Hit with Cupid's archery, Sink in apple of his eye.
William Shakespeare
Words are easy, like the wind Faithful friends are hard to find.
William Shakespeare
This rough magic I here abjure and when I have required some heavenly music, which even now I do, to work mine end upon their senses that this airy charm is for, I'll break my staff, bury it certain fathoms in the earth, and deeper than did ever plummet sound, I'll drown my book.
William Shakespeare
O thou invisible spirit of wine, if thou has no name to be known by, let us call thee devil....O God, that men should put an enemy in their mouths to steal away their brains! that we should, with joy, pleasance revel and applause, transform ourselves into beasts!
William Shakespeare
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
William Shakespeare
Learning is but an adjunct to ourself, And where we are our learning likewise is.
William Shakespeare
Hear me profess sincerely: had I a dozen sons, each in my love alike, and none less dear than thine and my good Marcius, I had rather have eleven die nobly for their country than one voluptuously surfeit out of action.
William Shakespeare
She lov'd me for the dangers I had pass'd, And I lov'd her that she did pity them
William Shakespeare
What soilders whey-face? The English for so please you. Take thy face hence.
William Shakespeare
She dreams of him that has forgot her love You dote on her that cares not for your love. 'Tis pity love should be so contrary And thinking of it makes me cry 'alas!
William Shakespeare
What is a man, if his chief good and market of his time be but to sleep and feed? a beast, no more.
William Shakespeare
Who can be patient in extremes?
William Shakespeare
What's Hecuba to him, or he to Hecuba, That he should weep for her?
William Shakespeare
I will be correspondent to command, And do my spiriting gently.
William Shakespeare
We cannot all be masters, nor all masters Cannot be truly followed.
William Shakespeare
Love's best habit is a soothing tongue
William Shakespeare
When he is best, he is a little worse than a man and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
William Shakespeare
Love does not see with the eyes, but with the soul.
William Shakespeare
