More quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Though those that are betray'd Do feel the treason sharply, yet the traitor stands in worse case of woe
William Shakespeare
Heaven take my soul, and England keep my bones!

How many a holy and obsequious tear hath dear religious love stolen from mine eye, as interest of the dead!
William Shakespeare
Now is the winter of our discontent Made glorious summer by this sun of York And all the clouds that lour'd upon our house In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.
William Shakespeare
