More quotes by William Shakespeare
Thou whoreson, senseless villain!
William Shakespeare
The commonwealth of Athens is become a forest of beasts.
William Shakespeare
O gentlemen, the time of life is short! To spend that shortness basely were too long, If life did ride upon a dial's point, Still ending at the arrival of an hour.
William Shakespeare
Though patience be a tired mare, yet she will plod.
William Shakespeare
Venus smiles not in a house of tears.
William Shakespeare
Now I will believe that there are unicorns.
William Shakespeare
Falsehood falsehood cures
William Shakespeare
A whoreson jackanapes must take me up for swearing as if I borrowed mine oaths of him and might not spend them at my pleasure. When a gentleman is disposed to swear, it is not for any standers-by to curtail his oaths, ha?
William Shakespeare
Things done well and with a care, exempt themselves from fear.
William Shakespeare
When to the sessions of sweet silent thought I summon up remembrance of things past, I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought.
William Shakespeare
Tis the mind that makes the body rich.
William Shakespeare
So shalt thou feed on Death, that feeds on men.
William Shakespeare
Hang there like fruit, my soul, Till the tree die!
William Shakespeare
Wrong hath but wrong, and blame the due of blame.
William Shakespeare
Have you not a moist eye, a dry hand, a yellow cheek, a white beard, a decreasing leg, an increasing belly? Is not your voice broken, your wind short, your chin double, your wit single, and every part about you blasted with antiquity?
William Shakespeare
O you beast! I'll so maul you and your toasting-iron, That you shall think the devil is come from hell.
William Shakespeare
Do not banish reason for inequality but let your reason serve to make the truth appear where it seems hid, and hide the false seems true.
William Shakespeare
It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.
William Shakespeare
Nay, had I pow'r, I should Pour the sweet milk of concord into hell, Uproar the universal peace, confound All unity on earth.
William Shakespeare
At Christmas I no more desire a rose Than wish a snow in May's new-fangled mirth But like of each thing that in season grows.
William Shakespeare
