More quotes by William Shakespeare
But, indeed, words are very rascals, since bonds [vows] disgraced them. Viola: Thy reason, man? Feste: Troth [Truthfully], sir, I can yield you none without words, and words are grown so false, I am loathe to prove reason with them.
William Shakespeare
I am as true as truth's simplicity, And simpler than the infancy of truth.
William Shakespeare
An two men ride of a horse, one must ride behind.
William Shakespeare
To be in love- where scorn is bought with groans, Coy looks with heart-sore sighs, one fading moment's mirth With twenty watchful, weary, tedious nights If haply won, perhaps a hapless gain If lost, why then a grievous labour won However, but a folly bought with wit, Or else a wit by folly vanquished.
William Shakespeare
As a walled town is more worthier than a village, so is the forehead of a married man more honorable than the bare brow of a bachelor.
William Shakespeare
The small amount of foolery wise men have makes a great show.
William Shakespeare
A whoreson jackanapes must take me up for swearing as if I borrowed mine oaths of him and might not spend them at my pleasure. When a gentleman is disposed to swear, it is not for any standers-by to curtail his oaths, ha?
William Shakespeare
Let me tell you, Cassius, you yourself are much condemned to have an itching palm.
William Shakespeare
...an old man is twice a child.
William Shakespeare
Lovers ever run before the clock
William Shakespeare
A knavish speech sleeps in a fool's ear.
William Shakespeare
'Tis brief, my lord...as woman's love.
William Shakespeare
Love yourself and in that love not unconsidered leave your honor.
William Shakespeare
Blind is his love, and best befits the dark.
William Shakespeare
They are in the very wrath of love, and they will go together. Clubs cannot part them
William Shakespeare
I have touched the highest point of all my greatness.
William Shakespeare
Grace me no grace, nor uncle me no uncle.
William Shakespeare
Now, my masters, happy man be his dole, say I every man to his business.
William Shakespeare
When I have plucked the rose, I cannot give it vital growth again, It needs must wither. I'll smell it on the tree.
William Shakespeare
Put forth thy hand, reach at the glorious gold.
William Shakespeare
