If there be devils, would I were a devil, To live and burn in everlasting fire, So I might have your company in hell, But to torment you with my bitter tongue!

Take it in what sense thou wilt.
William Shakespeare
To you your father should be as a god One that composed your beauties, yea, and one To whom you are but as a form in wax, By him imprinted, and within his power To leave the figure or disfigure it.
William Shakespeare
Then know, that I have little wealth to lose. A man I am, crossed with adversity My riches are these poor habiliments, Of which if you should here disfurnish me, You take the sum and substance that I have.
William Shakespeare
I will through and through Cleanse the foul body of th' infected world, If they will patiently receive my medicine.
William Shakespeare
A good sherris-sack hath a twofold operation in it. It ascends me into the brain,... makes it apprehensive, quick, forgetive, full of nimble, fiery, and delectable shapes.
William Shakespeare
Yes, faith it is my cousin's duty to make curtsy and say 'Father, as it please you.' But yet for all that, cousin, let him be a handsome fellow, or else make another curtsy and say 'Father, as it please me.

William Shakespeare
As honour, love, obedience, troops of friends, / I must not look to have but, in their stead, / Curses, not loud but deep, mouth-honour, breath, / Which the poor heart would fain deny, and dare not (5.3.25-28).
William Shakespeare
For honesty coupled to beauty, is to have honey a sauce to sugar.
William Shakespeare
And when I am forgotten, as I shall be, And asleep in dull cold marble, where no mention Of me must be heard of, say, I taught thee.
William Shakespeare
A merry heart goes all the way, - A sad one tires inan hour.
William Shakespeare
There is little choice in a barrel of rotten apples.
William Shakespeare
You must confine yourself within the modest limits of order.
William Shakespeare
Such an act That blurs the grace and blush of modesty Calls virtue hypocrite takes off the rose From the fair forehead of an innocent love, And sets a blister there makes marriage vows As false as dicers' oaths.
William Shakespeare
I had rather hear my dog bark at a crow, than a man swear he loves me.
William Shakespeare
I am sir Oracle, and when I ope my lips, let no dog bark.
William Shakespeare
To stand against the deep dread-bolted thunder, In the most terrible and nimble stroke Of quick, cross lightning.
William Shakespeare
We must be gentle now we are gentlemen.
William Shakespeare
Give me to drink mandragora.
William Shakespeare
This is a gift that I have, simple, simple a foolish extravagant spirit full of forms, figures, shapes, objects, ideas, apprehensions, motions, revolutions these are begot in the ventricle of memory, nourished in the womb of pia mater, and delivered upon the mellowing of occasion.
William Shakespeare
