More quotes by William Shakespeare
Poor Desdemona! I am glad thy father's dead. Thy match was mortal to him, and pure grief Shore his old thread in twain.
William Shakespeare
O Helena, goddess, nymph, perfect, divine! To what, my love, shall I compare thine eyne? Crystal is muddy. O, how ripe in show Thy lips, those kissing cherries, tempting grow!
William Shakespeare
The good I stand on is my truth and honesty.
William Shakespeare
To die: - to sleep: No more and, by a sleep to say we end The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation Devoutly to be wished.
William Shakespeare
The devil is a gentleman.
William Shakespeare
Enjoy the honey-heavy dew of slumber.
William Shakespeare
Of chastity, the ornaments are chaste.
William Shakespeare
If our virtues did not go forth of us, it were all alike as if we had them not.
William Shakespeare
Taste your legs, sire: put them into motion.
William Shakespeare
The pleasant'st angling is to see the fish Cut with her golden oars the silver stream And greedily devour the treacherous bait.

William Shakespeare
Then will I raise aloft the milk-white rose. For whose sweet smell the air shall be perfumed.
William Shakespeare
Have I caught thee, my heavenly jewel? Why, now let me die, for I have lived long enough.
William Shakespeare
To hell, allegiance! vows, to the blackest devil! Conscience, and grace, to the profoundest pit! I dare damnation: To this point I stand,-- That both the worlds I give to negligence, Let come what comes only I'll be reveng'd.
William Shakespeare
...too much sadness hath congealed your blood,And melancholy is the nurse of frenzy.
William Shakespeare
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more Or close the wall up with our English dead! In peace there's nothing so becomes a man As modest stillness and humility: But when the blast of war blows in our ears, Then imitate the action of the tiger.
William Shakespeare
Thy friendship makes us fresh.
William Shakespeare
The summer's flow'r is to the summer sweet, Though to itself it only live and die' But if that flow'r with base infection meet, The basest weed outbraves his dignity: For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds.
William Shakespeare
Oh, I am fortune's fool!
William Shakespeare
O constancy, be strong upon my side, Set a huge mountain 'tween my heart and tongue! I have a man's mind, but a woman's might.
William Shakespeare
