More quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
So may he rest, his faults lie gently on him!
William Shakespeare
Let those that play your clowns speak no more than is set down for them.
William Shakespeare
Sin from thy lips? O trespass sweetly urged! Give me my sin again.
William Shakespeare
Faith, stay here this night they will surely do us no harm you saw they speak us fair, give us gold methinks they are such a gentle nation that, but for the mountain of mad flesh that claims marriage of me, could find in my heart to stay here still and turn witch.
William Shakespeare
Men at some time are masters of their fates. The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves, that we are underlings.

William Shakespeare
Dumb jewels often, in their silent kind, more than quick words, do move a woman's mind.
William Shakespeare
The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.
William Shakespeare
He's of the colour of the nutmeg. And of the heat of the ginger.... he is pure air and fire and the dull elements of earth and water never appear in him, but only in patient stillness while his rider mounts him he is indeed a horse, and all other jades you may call beasts.
William Shakespeare
Now, infidel, I have you on the hip!
William Shakespeare
Too much of water hast thou, poor Ophelia, And therefore I forbid my tears: But yet It is our trick nature her custom holds, Let shame say what it will: when these are gone, The woman will be out. — Adieu, my lord! I have a speech of fire, that fain would blaze, But that this folly drowns it.
William Shakespeare
This rough magic I here abjure and when I have required some heavenly music, which even now I do, to work mine end upon their senses that this airy charm is for, I'll break my staff, bury it certain fathoms in the earth, and deeper than did ever plummet sound, I'll drown my book.
William Shakespeare
Oh God! that one might read the book of fate, And see the revolution of the times Make mountains level, and the continent, Weary of solid firmness, melt itself Into the sea.
William Shakespeare
Patch up thine old body for heaven.
William Shakespeare
