More quotes by William Shakespeare
And thus I clothe my naked villainy With odd old ends stol'n out of holy writ And seem a saint, when most I play the devil.
William Shakespeare
A hundred thousand welcomes: I could weep, And I could laugh I am light and heavy: Welcome.
William Shakespeare
Most subject is the fattest soil to weeds.
William Shakespeare
So may the outward shows be least themselves The world is still deceived with ornament.
William Shakespeare
I know a bank where the wild thyme blows, Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows, Quite over-canopied with luscious woodbine, With sweet musk-roses and with eglantine.
William Shakespeare
Two starving men cannot be twice as hungry as one but two rascals can be ten times as vicious as one.
William Shakespeare
Gives not the hawthorn bush a sweeter shade To shepherds, looking on their silly sheep, Than doth a rich embroider'd canopy To kings that fear their subjects treachery?
William Shakespeare
The devil is a gentleman.
William Shakespeare
Discharge my followers let them hence away, From Richard's night to Bolingbrooke's fair day.
William Shakespeare
The insolence of office.
William Shakespeare
Stay, my lord, And let your reason with your choler question What 'tis you go about: to climb steep hills Requires slow pace at first: anger is like A full-hot horse, who being allow'd his way, Self-mettle tires him. Not a man in England Can advise me like you: be to yourself As you would to your friend.
William Shakespeare
I could be well content To entertain the lag-end of my life With quiet hours.
William Shakespeare
The wheel is come full circle.
William Shakespeare
Liberty plucks justice by the nose The baby beats the nurse, and quite athwart Goes all decorum.
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
Bounty, being free itself, thinks all others so.
William Shakespeare
Summer's lease hath all too short a date.
William Shakespeare
How wayward is this foolish love that, like a testy babe, will scratch the nurse and presently, all humble, kiss the rod.
William Shakespeare
A very little little let us do And all is done.
William Shakespeare
Your wisdom is consum'd in confidence. Do not go forth to-day.
William Shakespeare
