More quotes by William Shakespeare
Nature hath meal and bran, contempt and grace.
William Shakespeare
God grant us patience!
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Give me a bowl of wine, In this I bury all unkindness.
William Shakespeare
When daffodils begin to peer, With heigh! the doxy, over the dale, Why, then comes in the sweet o' the year For the red blood reigns in the winter's pale. The white sheet bleaching on the hedge, With heigh! the sweet birds, O, how they sing! Doth set my pugging tooth on edge For a quart of ale is a dish for a king.
William Shakespeare
I'll speak in a monstrous little voice.
William Shakespeare
RUMOUR: Upon my tongues continual slanders ride, The which in every language I pronounce, Stuffing the ears of men with false reports.
William Shakespeare
My salad days, When I was green in judgment.
William Shakespeare
Bad is the trade that must play fool to sorrow, Ang'ring itself and others.
William Shakespeare
I rather would entreat thy company To see the wonders of the world abroad, Than, living dully sluggardized at home, Wear out thy youth with shapeless idleness.
William Shakespeare
For conspiracy, I know not how it tastes, though it be dished For me to try how.
William Shakespeare
By heaven, I do love: and it hath taught me to rhyme, and to be mekancholy.
William Shakespeare
Too much of water hast thou, poor Ophelia, And therefore I forbid my tears.
William Shakespeare
You great benefactors, sprinkle our society with thankfulness. For your own gifts, make yourselves praised.
William Shakespeare
By innocence I swear, and by my youth, I have one heart, one bosom, and one truth, And that no woman has, nor never none Shall mistress be of it save I alone.
William Shakespeare
For what is wedlock forced but a hell, An age of discord and continual strife? Whereas the contrary bringeth bliss, And is a pattern of celestial peace.
William Shakespeare
Women may fail when there is no strength in man
William Shakespeare
O God, O God, how weary, stale, flat, and unprofitable seem to me all the uses of this world!
William Shakespeare
My business was great, and in such a case as mine a man may strain courtesy.
William Shakespeare
No might nor greatness in mortality Can censure 'scape back- wounding calumny The whitest virtue strikes. What king so strong Can tie the gall up in the slanderous tongue?
William Shakespeare
