More quotes by William Shakespeare
Mirth cannot move a soul in agony.
William Shakespeare
I'll read enough When I do see the very book indeed Where all my sins are writ, and that's myself.
William Shakespeare
That is my home of love: if I have ranged, Like him that travels I return again, Just to the time, not with the time exchanged.
William Shakespeare
Oh, how this spring of love resembleth, The uncertain glory of an April day, Which now shows all beauty of the Sun, And by and by a cloud takes all away
William Shakespeare
Taffeta phrases, silken terms precise, Three-piled hyperboles, spruce affection, Figures pedantical--these summer flies Have blown me full of maggot ostentation.
William Shakespeare
Well could he ride, and often men would say, That horse his mettle from his rider takes: Proud of subjection, noble by the sway, What rounds, what bounds, what course, what stop he makes! And controversy hence a question takes, Whether the horse by him became his deed, Or he his manage by the well-doing steed.
William Shakespeare
I thank God I am not a woman, to be touched in so many giddy offences as He hath generally taxed their whole their whole sex withal.
William Shakespeare
Courage mounteth with occasion.
William Shakespeare
RUMOUR: Upon my tongues continual slanders ride, The which in every language I pronounce, Stuffing the ears of men with false reports.
William Shakespeare
Love does not see with the eyes, but with the soul.
William Shakespeare
Bid me run, and I will strive with things impossible.
William Shakespeare
Who soars too near the sun, with golden wings, melts them.
William Shakespeare
Blood will have blood.
William Shakespeare
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. If this be error and upon me prov'd, I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd.
William Shakespeare
This sanguine coward, this bed-presser, this horseback-breaker, this huge hill of flesh!
William Shakespeare
Avaunt, you cullions!
William Shakespeare
Too much of water hast thou, poor Ophelia, And therefore I forbid my tears: But yet It is our trick nature her custom holds, Let shame say what it will: when these are gone, The woman will be out. — Adieu, my lord! I have a speech of fire, that fain would blaze, But that this folly drowns it.
William Shakespeare
Every man has his fault, and honesty is his.
William Shakespeare
He kills her in her own humor.
William Shakespeare
Cease thy counsel, for thy words fall into my ears as priceless as water into a seive.
William Shakespeare
