More quotes by William Shakespeare
Rich gifts wax poor when givers prove unkind.
William Shakespeare
Wise men ne'er sit and wail their woes, but presently prevent the ways to wail.
William Shakespeare
Ingratitude is monstrous and for the multitude to be ingrateful were to make a monster of the multitude of which we being members, should bring ourselves to be monstrous members.
William Shakespeare
So loving to my mother, That he might not beteem the winds of heaven, Visit her face' too roughly.
William Shakespeare
The instruments of darkness tell us truths.
William Shakespeare
Methinks you are my glass, and not my brother: I see by you I am a sweet-faced youth.
William Shakespeare
Away, you mouldy rogue, away!
William Shakespeare
Tis much when sceptres are in children's hands, But more when envy breeds unkind division: There comes the ruin, there begins confusion.
William Shakespeare
It provokes the desire but it takes away the performance. Therefore much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him and it mars him it sets him on and it takes him off.
William Shakespeare
He that commends me to mine own content Commends me to the thing I cannot get. I to the world am like a drop of water That in the ocean seeks another drop, Who, falling there to find his fellow forth, Unseen, inquisitive, confounds himself: So I, to find a mother and a brother, In quest of them, unhappy, lose myself.
William Shakespeare
But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, All losses are restored and sorrows end.
William Shakespeare
Sweet are the uses of adversity
William Shakespeare
The lunatic, the lover, and the poet, are of imagination all compact.
William Shakespeare
Let's all cry peace, freedom, and liberty!
William Shakespeare
Self-love is the most inhibited sin in the canon.
William Shakespeare
When a gentlemen is disposed to swear, it is not for any standers-by to curtail his oaths.
William Shakespeare
O comfort-killing night, image of hell, Dim register and notary of shame, Black stage for tragedies and murders fell, Vast sin-concealing chaos, nurse of blame!
William Shakespeare
Wish chastely, and love dearly.
William Shakespeare
No, no, I am but shadow of myself: You are deceived, my substance is not here.
William Shakespeare
Fairies, black, grey, green, and white, You moonshine revellers, and shades of night, You orphan heirs of fixed destiny, Attend your office and your quality.
William Shakespeare
