More quotes by William Shakespeare
Wherefore was I to this keen mockery born? When at your hands did I deserve this scorn? Is't not enough, is't not enough, young man, That I did never, no, nor never can, Deserve a sweet look from Demetrius' eye, But you must flout my insufficiency?
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Heat not a furnace for your foe so hot that it do singe yourself.
William Shakespeare
The fear's as bad as falling.
William Shakespeare
Costly thy habit [dress] as thy purse can buy But not expressed in fancy - rich, not gaudy. For the apparel oft proclaims the man.

My endeavors Have ever come too short of my desires. Yet filed with my abilities.
