More quotes by William Shakespeare
Those that much covet are with gain so fond, For what they have not, that which they possess They scatter and unloose it from their bond, And so, by hoping more, they have but less Or, gaining more, the profit of excess Is but to surfeit, and such griefs sustain, That they prove bankrupt in this poor-rich gain.
William Shakespeare
Her blood is settled, and her joints are stiff Life and these lips have long been separated: Death lies on her like an untimely frost Upon the sweetest flower of all the field.
William Shakespeare
But jealous souls will not be answered so, They are not ever jealous for the cause, But jealous for they're jealous. 'Tis a monster Begot upon itself, born on itself.
William Shakespeare
To be a well-favoured man is the gift of fortune but to write and read comes by nature.
William Shakespeare
In thy face I see the map of honour, truth and loyalty.
William Shakespeare
I will praise any man that will praise me.
William Shakespeare
He's a soldier and for one to say a soldier lies, is stabbing.
William Shakespeare
Truth hath a quiet breast.
William Shakespeare
Love's heralds should be thoughts, Which ten times faster glide than the sun's beams Driving back shadows over low'ring hills. Therefore do nimble-pinioned doves draw Love, And therefore hath the wind-swift Cupid wings.
William Shakespeare
Besides, they are our outward consciences, And preachers to us all, admonishing That we should drew us fairly for our end.
William Shakespeare
As full of spirit as the month of May, and as gorgeous as the sun in Midsummer.
William Shakespeare
Oh, injurious love, that respites me a life, whose very comfort is still a dying horror
William Shakespeare
Pray, do not mock me. I am a very foolish fond old man, Fourscore and upward, not an hour more nor less And, to deal plainly, I fear I am not in my perfect mind.
William Shakespeare
Men so noble, However faulty, yet should find respect For what they have been: 'tis a cruelty To load a falling man.
William Shakespeare
Thou frothy tickle-brained hedge-pig!
William Shakespeare
Were beauty under twenty locks kept fast, yet love breaks through and picks them all at last.
William Shakespeare
Either our history shall with full mouth Speak freely of our acts, or else our grave, Like Turkish mute, shall have a tongueless mouth, Not worshipped with a waxen epitaph.
William Shakespeare
Rumor is a pipe Blown by surmises, jealousies, conjectures.
William Shakespeare
Hope is a lover's staff walk hence with that And manage it against despairing thoughts.
William Shakespeare
The very substance of the ambitious is merely the shadow of a dream.
William Shakespeare
