More quotes by William Shakespeare
Ay, that incestuous, that adulterate beast, With witchcraft of his wit, with traitorous gifts- O wicked wit and gifts, that have the power So to seduce!
William Shakespeare
Assume a virtue, if you have it not. That monster, custom, who all sense doth eat Of habits devil, is angel yet in this.
William Shakespeare
When we our betters see bearing our woes, We scarcely think our miseries our foes.
William Shakespeare
He's truly valiant that can wisely suffer The worst that man can breathe, and make his wrongs His outsides, to wear them like his raiment, carelessly, And ne'er prefer his injuries to his heart, To bring it into danger.
William Shakespeare
Love is familiar. Love is a devil. There is no evil angel but Love. -
William Shakespeare
But I remember now I am in this earthly world, where to do harm Is often laudable, to do good sometime Accounted dangerous folly.
William Shakespeare
My grief lies all within, And these external manners of lament Are merely shadows to the unseen grief That swells with silence in the tortured soul.
William Shakespeare
Do as the heavens have done, forget your evil With them forgive yourself.
William Shakespeare
These violent delights have violent ends.
William Shakespeare
Nothing teems But hateful docks, rough thistles, kecksies, burs, Losing both beauty and utility.
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
Go, bid the soldiers shoot.
William Shakespeare
Our peace shall stand as firm as rocky mountains.
William Shakespeare
In maiden meditation, fancy free.
William Shakespeare
'Tis better to bear the ills we have than fly to others that we know not of.
William Shakespeare
Give me my robe, put on my crown I have Immortal longings in me.
William Shakespeare
Sir, the year growing ancient, Not yet on summer's death nor on the birth Of trembling winter, the fairest flowers o' th' season Are our carnations and streaked gillyvors, Which some call nature's bastards.
William Shakespeare
Death, a necessary end, will come when it will come
William Shakespeare
Shall I never see a bachelor of three score again?
William Shakespeare
I must be cruel, only to be kind.
William Shakespeare
