Image
Shall I compare thee to a summer day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate... When in eternal lines to time thou growst So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
William Shakespeare
Image
Nature does require her times of preservation.
William Shakespeare
Image
To weep is to make less the depth of grief.
William Shakespeare
Image
Had I but died an hour before this chance, I had liv'd a blessed time for, from this instant, There's nothing serious in mortality: All is but toys renown, and grace is dead The wine of life is drawn, and the mere lees Is left this vault to brag of.
William Shakespeare

Wish chastely, and love dearly.
William Shakespeare
Image
This England never did, nor never shall, Lie at the proud foot of a conqueror, But when it first did help to wound itself. Now these her princes are come home again, Come the three corners of the world in arms, And we shall shock them. Nought shall make us rue, If England to itself do rest but true.
William Shakespeare
Image
Every man has a bag hanging before him, in which he puts his neighbour's faults, and another behind him in which he stows his own.
William Shakespeare

You have lost no reputation at all, unless you repute yourself such a loser.
William Shakespeare
Image
Past all shame, so past all truth.
William Shakespeare
Image
A good sherris-sack hath a twofold operation in it. It ascends me into the brain,... makes it apprehensive, quick, forgetive, full of nimble, fiery, and delectable shapes.
William Shakespeare
Image
In truth, fair Montague, I am too fond.
William Shakespeare
Image
Who can be wise, amazed, temperate and furious, Loyal and neutral, in a moment? No man.
William Shakespeare
Image
Join not with grief, fair woman, do not so, To make my end too sudden.
William Shakespeare
Image
Why, there's a wench! Come on, and kiss me, Kate.
William Shakespeare

Love will not be spurred to what it loathes
William Shakespeare
Image
Can I go forward when my heart is here? Turn back, dull earth, and find thy centre out.
William Shakespeare
Image
When I bestride him, I soar, I am a hawk: he trots the air the earth sings when he touches it the basest horn of his hoof is more musical than the pipe of Hermes.
William Shakespeare

The world is not thy friend, nor the world's law. - Romeo
