More quotes by William Shakespeare
But we have reason to cool our raging motions, our carnal stings, our unbitted lusts whereof I take this that you call love to bea sect or scion.... It is merely a lust of the blood and a permission of the will.
William Shakespeare
You are made Rather to wonder at the things you hear Than to work any.
William Shakespeare
A man cannot make him laugh but that's no marvel he drinks no wine.... If I had a thousand sons, the first human principle I would teach them should be, to forswear thin potations and to addict themselves to sack.
William Shakespeare
Night's candles have burned out, and jocund day stands tiptoe on the misty mountaintops. Hope tinged with melancholy - like life.
William Shakespeare
They have been grand-jurymen since before Noah was a sailor
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Some glory in their birth , some in their skill , Some in their wealth , some in their bodies' force , Some in their garments, though new-fangled ill Some in their hawks and hounds , some in their horse And every humor hath his adjunct pleasure , Wherein it finds a joy above the rest .
William Shakespeare
In sooth I know not why I am so sad. It wearies me, you say it wearies you But how I caught it, found it, or came by it, What stuff 'tis made of, whereof it is born, I am to learn.
William Shakespeare
There's an old saying that applies to me: you can't lose a game if you don't play the game. (Act 1, scene 4)
William Shakespeare
The violence of either grief or joy, their own enactures with themselves destroy.
William Shakespeare
Ay, when fowls have no feathers and fish have no fin.
William Shakespeare
What showers arise, blown with the windy tempest of my heart
William Shakespeare
Poor wretches that depend On greatness' favor, dream as I have done Wake, and find nothing.
William Shakespeare
O, what men dare do! what men may do! what men daily do, not knowing what they do.
William Shakespeare
you saw her fair, none else being by, Herself pois'd with herself in either eye But in that crystal scales let there be weigh'd Your lady's love against some other maid That I will show you shining at this feast, And she shall scant show well that now seems best.
William Shakespeare
Ay, Much is the force of heaven-bred poesy.
William Shakespeare
