More quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Tis a cruelty to load a fallen man.
William Shakespeare
Were beauty under twenty locks kept fast, yet love breaks through and picks them all at last.
William Shakespeare
Though I look old, yet I am strong and lusty for in my youth I never did apply hot and rebellious liquors in my blood and did not, with unbashful forehead, woo the means of weakness and debility: therefore my age is as a lusty winter, frosty but kindly.
William Shakespeare
An old man, broken with the storms of state, Is come to lay his weary bones among ye Give him a little earth for charity!
William Shakespeare
it is my lady! *sighs* o, it is my love! o, that she knew she were! she speaks, yet she sais nothing. what of that? her eye discourses i will answer it. i am too bold, 'tis not to me she speaks two of the fairest stars in all the heaven, having some business, do entreat her eyes to twinkle in their spheres till they return.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
So holy and so perfect is my love, And I in such a poverty of grace, That I shall think it a most plenteous crop To glean the broken ears after the man That the main harvest reaps.
William Shakespeare
Base men being in love have then a nobility in their natures more than is native to them.
William Shakespeare
If she be not honest, chaste, and true, there's no man happy.
William Shakespeare
No longer mourn for me when I am dead Than you shall hear the surly sullen bell Give warning to the world that I am fled From this vile world, with vilest worms to dwell.
William Shakespeare
Is there no pity sitting in the clouds That sees into the bottom of my grief? O sweet my mother, cast me not away! Delay this marriage for a month, a week, Or if you do not, make the bridal bed In that dim monument where Tybalt lies.
William Shakespeare
I'll never Be such a gosling to obey instinct, but stand As is a man were author of himself And knew no other kin.
William Shakespeare
Nature does require her times of preservation.
William Shakespeare
Absence from those we love is self from self - a deadly banishment.
William Shakespeare
Love bears it out even to the edge of doom.
William Shakespeare
It was always yet the trick of our English nation, if they have a good thing, to make it too common.
William Shakespeare
Look, what envious streaks do lace the severing clouds in yonder east! Night's candles are burnt out, and jocund day stands tip-toe on the misty mountain-tops.
William Shakespeare
Why, thou knowest I am as valiant as Hercules, but beware instinct. The lion will not touch the true prince. Instinct is a great matter. I was a coward on instinct.
William Shakespeare
