More quotes by William Shakespeare
As I love the name of honour more than I fear death.
William Shakespeare
You are not worth another word, else I'd call you knave.
William Shakespeare
Tis a blushing shame-faced spirit that mutinies in a man's bosom. It fills a man full of obstacles. It made me once restore a purse of gold that (by chance) I found. It beggars any man that keeps it.
William Shakespeare
I, measuring his affections by my own, Which then most sought where most might not be found, Being one too many by my weary self, Pursued my humor not pursuing his, And gladly shunned who gladly fled from me.
William Shakespeare
Therefore I tell my sorrows to the stones Who, though they cannot answer my distress, Yet in some sort they are better than the tribunes, For that they will not intercept my tale: When I do weep, they humbly at my feet Receive my tears and seem to weep with me And, were they but attired in grave weeds, Rome could afford no tribune like to these.
William Shakespeare
Beggar that I am, I am even poor in thanks, but I thank you and sure, dear friends, my thanks are too dear a halfpenny.
William Shakespeare
What the great ones do, the less will prattle of
William Shakespeare
I bear a charmed life.
William Shakespeare
Reputation is an idle and most false imposition oft got without merit, and lost without deserving.
William Shakespeare
All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players: they have their exits and their entrances and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages.
William Shakespeare
Delivers in such apt and gracious words that aged ears play truant at his tales And younger hearings are quite ravished So sweet and voluble is his discourse.
William Shakespeare
He's mad that trusts in the tameness of a wolf.
William Shakespeare
But love that comes too late, Like a remorseful pardon slowly carried, To the great sender turns a sour offense, Crying, 'That's good that's gone.
William Shakespeare
Let me say amen betimes lest the devil cross my prayer, for here he comes in the likeness of a Jew.
William Shakespeare
Virtue and genuine graces in themselves speak what no words can utter.
William Shakespeare
Good reasons must of force give place to better.
William Shakespeare
The chameleon Love can feed on the air
William Shakespeare
She's good, being gone.
William Shakespeare
Good luck lies in odd numbers.
William Shakespeare
For mine own part, it was Greek to me.
