More quotes by William Shakespeare
I am disgraced, impeached, and baffled here, Pierced to the soul with slander's venomed spear.
William Shakespeare
I am misanthropos, and hate mankind, For thy part, I do wish thou wert a dog, That I might love thee something.
William Shakespeare
Some men never seem to grow old. Always active in thought, always ready to adopt new ideas, they are never chargeable with foggyism. Satisfied, yet ever dissatisfied, settled, yet ever unsettled, they always enjoy the best of what is, are the first to find the best of what will be.
William Shakespeare
Fear no more the heat o' th' sun Nor the furious winters' rages Thou thy worldly task hast done, Home art gone, and ta'en thy wages. Golden lads and girls all must, As chimney-sweepers, come to dust.
William Shakespeare
Do not plunge thyself too far in anger.
William Shakespeare
The bitter clamor of two eager tongues.
William Shakespeare
Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war!
William Shakespeare
Oh, that way madness lies let me shun that.
William Shakespeare
The Devil hath power To assume a pleasing shape.
William Shakespeare
Reflection is the business of man a sense of his state is his first duty: but who remembereth himself in joy? Is it not in mercy then that sorrow is allotted unto us?
William Shakespeare
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon, Who is already sick and pale with grief That thou, her maid, art far more fair than she. . . .
William Shakespeare
Ambition, the soldier's virtue, rather makes choice of loss, than gain which darkens him.
William Shakespeare
Slanders, sir, for the satirical rogue says here that old men have grey beards, that their faces are wrinkled, their eyes purging think amber and plum-tree gum, and that they have a plentiful lack of wit, together with most weak hams.
William Shakespeare
Contention, like a horse, Full of high feeding, madly hath broke loose, And bears down all before him.
William Shakespeare
What should a man do but be merry? For look you how cheerfully my mother looks, and my father died within's two hours.
William Shakespeare
Hear the meaning within the word.
William Shakespeare
I beseech you, Wrest once the law to your authority: To do a great right, do a little wrong.
William Shakespeare
As flies to wanton boys, are we to the gods they kill us for their sport.
William Shakespeare
If we are true to ourselves, we can not be false to anyone.
William Shakespeare
The tyrant custom, most grave senators, Hath made the flinty and steel couch of war My thrice-driven bed of down.
William Shakespeare
