More quotes by 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
To fear the foe, since fear oppresseth strength, Gives, in your weakness, strength unto your foe, And so your follies fight against yourself. Fear, and be slain--so worse can come to fight And fight and die is death destroying death, Where fearing dying pays death servile breath.
William Shakespeare
There's daggers in men's smiles.
William Shakespeare
What is more miserable than discontent?
William Shakespeare
Yet mark'd I where the bolt of Cupid fell: It fell upon a little western flower, Before milk-white, now purple with love's wound, And maidens call it love-in-idleness.
William Shakespeare
They told me I was everything. 'Tis a lie, I am not ague-proof.
William Shakespeare
The wounds invisible that Love's keen arrows make.
William Shakespeare
Who are the violets now That strew the lap of the new-come spring?
William Shakespeare
For she had eyes and chose me.
William Shakespeare
I pardon him, as God shall pardon me.
William Shakespeare
Is she not passing fair?
William Shakespeare
How art thou out of breath when thou hast breath To say to me that thou art out of breath?
William Shakespeare
so full of shapes is fancy
William Shakespeare
Too early seen unknown, and known too late!
William Shakespeare
There is a history in all men's lives, Figuring the nature of the times deceased, The which observed, a man may prophesy, With a near aim, of the main chance of things As yet not come to life, which in their seeds And weak beginnings lie intreasured.
William Shakespeare
To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.
William Shakespeare
Because I cannot flatter and look fair, Smile in men's faces, smooth, deceive, and cog, Duck with French nods and apish courtesy, I must be held a rancorous enemy.
William Shakespeare
ROMEO There is thy gold, worse poison to men's souls, Doing more murders in this loathsome world, Than these poor compounds that thou mayst not sell. I sell thee poison thou hast sold me none. Farewell: buy food, and get thyself in flesh. Come, cordial and not poison, go with me To Juliet's grave for there must I use thee.
William Shakespeare
Heaven would that she these gifts should have, and I to live and die her slave.
William Shakespeare
Vaulting ambition, which o'erleaps itself And falls on the other side
William Shakespeare
