More quotes by William Shakespeare
Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.
William Shakespeare
Trust not my reading, nor my observations, Which with experimental seal do warrant The tenor of my book.
William Shakespeare
Good company, good wine, good welcome, can make good people.
William Shakespeare
The horn, the horn, the lusty horn Is not a thing to laugh to scorn.
William Shakespeare
Yet nor the lays of birds nor the sweet smell Of different flowers in odour and in hue Could make me any summer's story tell, Or from their proud lap pluck them where they grew Nor did I wonder at the lily's white, Nor praise the deep vermilion in the rose They were but sweet, but figures of delight, Drawn after you, you pattern of all those.
William Shakespeare
Greatness, once fallen out with fortune, must fall out with men too.
William Shakespeare
I am sure, Though you can guess what temperance should be, You know not what it is.
William Shakespeare
Tell them, that, to ease them of their griefs, Their fear of hostile strokes, their aches, losses, Their pangs of love, with other incident throes That nature's fragile vessel doth sustain In life's uncertain voyage, I will some kindness do them.
William Shakespeare
O comfort-killing night, image of hell, Dim register and notary of shame, Black stage for tragedies and murders fell, Vast sin-concealing chaos, nurse of blame!
William Shakespeare
Reputation, reputation, reputation! O, I ha' lost my reputation, I ha' lost the immortal part of myself, and what remains is bestial!
William Shakespeare
Most dear actors, eat no onions nor garlic, for we are to utter sweet breath.
William Shakespeare
It is great sin to swear unto a sin, But greater sin to keep a sinful oath.
William Shakespeare
Lord, Lord, how this world is given to lying!
William Shakespeare
So get the start of the majestic world And bear the palm alone.
William Shakespeare
Beauty is bought by judgement of the eye.
William Shakespeare
Violent fires soon burn out themselves, small showers last long, but sudden storms are short he tires betimes that spurs too fast.
William Shakespeare
I have a bone to pick with Fate
William Shakespeare
To beguile the time, look like the time.
William Shakespeare
Virtue that transgresses is but patched with sin and sin that amends is but patched with virtue.
William Shakespeare
For I am nothing if not critical.
William Shakespeare
