More quotes by William Shakespeare
Titus Andronicus, my lord the Emperor Sends thee this word, that, if thou love thy sons, Let Marcus, Lucius, or thyself, old Titus, Or any one of you, chop off your hand And send it to the King: he for the same Will send thee hither both thy sons alive, And that shall be the ransom for their fault.

William Shakespeare
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,Creeps in this petty pace from day to day

William Shakespeare
Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?
William Shakespeare
I think thy horse will sooner con an oration than thou learn a prayer without book.
William Shakespeare
When words are scarce they are seldom spent in vain.
William Shakespeare
What's past and what's to come is strew'd with husks And formless ruin of oblivion.

The eagle suffers little birds to sing.
William Shakespeare
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come.
William Shakespeare
O horror! Horror! Horror! Tongue nor heart Cannot conceive nor name thee!
William Shakespeare
