More quotes by William Shakespeare
I begin to find an idle and fond bondage in the oppression of aged tyranny, who sways, not as it hath power, but as it is suffered.
William Shakespeare
My salad days, When I was green in judgment.
William Shakespeare
Your face, my thane, is as a book where men May read strange matters. To beguile the time, Look like the time bear welcome in your eye, Your hand, your tongue: look like the innocent flower, But be the serpent under't.
William Shakespeare
Memory, the warder of the brain.
William Shakespeare
You have but mistook me all the while... I live by bread like you, taste grief, feel want, need friends. Conditioned thus how can you call me king?
William Shakespeare
O powerful love, that in some respects makes a beast a man, in some other, a man a beast.
William Shakespeare
By my soul I swear, there is no power in the tongue of man to alter me.
William Shakespeare
Haply a woman's voice may do some good When articles too nicely urged be stood on.
William Shakespeare
Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.
William Shakespeare
This fellow pecks up wit, as pigeons peas And utters it again when God doth please: He is wit's pedler and retails his wares.
William Shakespeare
The weariest and most loathed worldly life, that age, ache, penury and imprisonment can lay on nature is a paradise, to what we fear of death.
William Shakespeare
Slander lives upon succession, For ever housed where it gets possession.
William Shakespeare
'Tis best to weigh the enemy more mighty than he seems.
William Shakespeare
O, full of scorpions is my mind!
William Shakespeare
The weight of this sad time we must obey, Speak what we feel, not what we ought to say. The oldest hath borne most: we that are young Shall never see so much, nor live so long.
William Shakespeare
A knot you are of damned bloodsuckers.
William Shakespeare
All things that we ordained festival Turn from their office to black funeral-- Our instruments to melancholy bells, Our wedding cheer to a sad burial feast Our solemn hymns to sullen dirges change Our bridal flowers serve for a buried corse And all things change them to the contrary.
William Shakespeare
Now my charms are all o'erthrown.
William Shakespeare
Methinks you are my glass, and not my brother: I see by you I am a sweet-faced youth.
William Shakespeare
I have bought golden opinions from all sorts of people.
William Shakespeare
