O call not me to justify the wrong, That thy unkindness lays upon my heart, Wound me not with thine eye but with thy tongue, Use power with power, and slay me not by art.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
I was too young that time to value her, But now I know her. If she be a traitor, Why, so am I. We still have slept together, Rose at an instant, learned, played, eat together, And wheresoe'er we went, like Juno's swans, Still we went coupled and inseparable.
William Shakespeare
I love thee, I love thee with a love that shall not die. Till the sun grows cold and the stars grow old.
William Shakespeare
Ambition, the soldier's virtue, rather makes choice of loss, than gain which darkens him.
William Shakespeare
I have touch'd the highest point of all my greatness, And from that full meridian of my glory I haste now to my setting.
William Shakespeare
We may outrun By violent swiftness And lose by over-running.
William Shakespeare
Then love-devouring Death do what he dare.
William Shakespeare
Between the acting of a dreadful thing And the first motion, all the interim is Like a phantasma or a hideous dream.
William Shakespeare
Death lies on her like an untimely frost.
William Shakespeare
The bitter clamor of two eager tongues.
William Shakespeare
Or art thou but / A dagger of the mind, a false creation, / Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?
William Shakespeare
I had rather be a Kitten, and cry mew, Than one of these same Meeter Ballad-mongers: I had rather heare a Brazen Candlestick turn'd, Or a dry Wheele grate on the Axle-tree, And that would set my teeth nothing an edge, Nothing so much, as mincing Poetrie.
William Shakespeare
Throw physic to the dogs I'll none of it.
William Shakespeare
O, let me kiss that hand! KING LEAR: Let me wipe it first it smells of mortality.
William Shakespeare
My glass shall not persuade me I am old, So long as youth and thou are of one date But when in thee time's furrows I behold, Then look I death my days should expiate.
William Shakespeare
To be slow in words is a woman's only virtue.
William Shakespeare
Unless hours were cups of sack, and minutes capons, and clocks the tongues of bawds, and dials the signs of leaping-houses, and the blessed sun himself a fair hot wench in flame-colored taffeta, I see no reason why thou shouldst be so superfluous to demand the time of the day.
William Shakespeare
As a walled town is more worthier than a village, so is the forehead of a married man more honorable than the bare brow of a bachelor.
William Shakespeare
Who soars too near the sun, with golden wings, melts them.
William Shakespeare
I am thy father's spirit Doom'd for a certain term to walk the night And, for the day, confin'd to fast in fires, Till the foul crimes, done in my days of nature, Are burnt and purg'd away.
William Shakespeare
And all my mother came into mine eyes And gave me up to tears.
William Shakespeare
