More quotes by William Shakespeare
The crow doth sing as sweetly as the lark When neither is attended and I think The nightingale, if she should sing by day When every goose is cackling, would be thought No better a musician than the wren. How many thing by season seasoned are To their right praise and true perfection!
William Shakespeare
How poor are they that have not patience! What wound did ever heal but by degrees?
William Shakespeare
Give obedience where 'tis truly owed.
William Shakespeare
Men at sometime are the masters of their fate.
William Shakespeare
Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove. O, no! It is an ever-fixed mark, That looks on tempests and is never shaken. It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
William Shakespeare
The Thane of Cawdor lives, A prosperous gentleman and to be King Stands not within the prospect of belief, No more than to be Cawdor.
William Shakespeare
My father's wit, and my mother's tongue, assist me!
William Shakespeare
If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men's cottage princes' palaces.
William Shakespeare
To sleep perchance to dream
William Shakespeare
Be like you thought our love would last too long, if it were chain'd together
William Shakespeare
So get the start of the majestic world And bear the palm alone.
William Shakespeare
When he shall die, Take him and cut him out in little stars, And he will make the face of heaven so fine That all the world will be in love with night And pay no worship to the garish sun.
William Shakespeare
The brain may devise laws for the blood, but a hot temper leaps o'er a cold decree.
William Shakespeare
I will be free, even to the uttermost, as I please, in words.
William Shakespeare
What power is it which mounts my love so high, that makes me see, and cannot feed mine eye
William Shakespeare
We that are true lovers run into strange capers.
William Shakespeare
It provokes the desire but it takes away the performance. Therefore much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him and it mars him it sets him on and it takes him off.
William Shakespeare
Our peace shall stand as firm as rocky mountains.
William Shakespeare
Thou whoreson zed! Thou unnecessary letter! My lord, if you will give me leave, I will tread this unbolted villain into mortar, and daub the wall of a jakes with him. *all cheer for Shakespearean insults*
William Shakespeare
O, the blood more stirs To rouse a lion than to start a hare!
William Shakespeare
