The time is out of joint : O cursed spite, that ever I was born to set it right!
William Shakespeare
Come not between the dragon and his wrath.
William Shakespeare
I am a foe to tyrants, and my country's friend.
William Shakespeare
Temptation is the fire that brings up the scum of the heart.

Hide not thy poison with such sugar'd words
William Shakespeare
Now, neighbor confines, purge you of your scum! Have you a ruffian that will swear, drink, dance, revel the night, rob, murder, and commit the oldest sins the newest kind of ways?
William Shakespeare
Nothing teems But hateful docks, rough thistles, kecksies, burs, Losing both beauty and utility.
William Shakespeare
Time is a very bankrupt and owes more than he's worth to season. Nay, he's a thief too: have you not heard men say, That Time comes stealing on by night and day?
William Shakespeare
That you were once unkind befriends me now, And for that sorrow, which I then did feel, Needs must I under my transgression bow, Unless my nerves were brass or hammered steel.
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
Be just, and fear not. Let all the ends thou aim'st at be thy country's, Thy God's and truth's.
William Shakespeare
Or are you like the painting of a sorrow, a face without a heart?
William Shakespeare
We must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
William Shakespeare
Now, my co-mates and brothers in exile, Hath not old custom made this life more sweet Than that of painted pomp? Are not these woods More free from peril than the envious court?
William Shakespeare
Is this a vision? Is this a dream? Do I sleep?
William Shakespeare
These flowers are like the pleasures of the world.
William Shakespeare
But thy eternal summer shall not fade.
William Shakespeare
As honour, love, obedience, troops of friends, / I must not look to have but, in their stead, / Curses, not loud but deep, mouth-honour, breath, / Which the poor heart would fain deny, and dare not (5.3.25-28).
William Shakespeare
I and my bosom must debate awhile, and then I would no other company.
William Shakespeare
