More quotes by William Shakespeare
If I had my mouth, I would bite if I had my liberty, I would do my liking. In the meantime, let me be that I am, and seek not toalter me.
William Shakespeare
Shall I compare thee to a summer day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate... When in eternal lines to time thou growst So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
William Shakespeare
Behold the threaden sails, Borne with the invisible and creeping wind, Draw the huge bottoms through the furrow'd sea, Breasting the lofty surge
William Shakespeare
You'd be so lean, that blast of January Would blow you through and through. Now, my fair'st friend, I would I had some flowers o' the spring that might Become your time of day.
William Shakespeare
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.
William Shakespeare
Had I but died an hour before this chance, I had liv'd a blessed time for, from this instant, There's nothing serious in mortality: All is but toys renown, and grace is dead The wine of life is drawn, and the mere lees Is left this vault to brag of.
William Shakespeare
My thoughts are whirled like a potter's wheel I know not where I am nor what I do.
William Shakespeare
Thou hast not half that power to do me harm As I have to be hurt.
William Shakespeare
What thing, in honor, had my father lost, That need to be revived and breathed in me?
William Shakespeare
Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow.
William Shakespeare
Wilt thou whip thine own faults in other men?
William Shakespeare
The quality of mercy is not strained
William Shakespeare
Crowns have their compass-length of days their date- Triumphs their tomb-felicity, her fate- Of nought but earth can earth make us partaker, But knowledge makes a king most like his Maker.
William Shakespeare
If this were played upon a stage now, I could condemn it as an improbable fiction.
William Shakespeare
Be patient, for the world is broad and wide.
William Shakespeare
Grief best is pleased with grief's society.
William Shakespeare
Now, by the world, it is a lusty wench I love her ten times more than e'er I did: O, how I long to have some chat with her!
William Shakespeare
When daisies pied and violets blue And lady-smocks all silver-white And cuckoo-buds of yellow hue Do paint the meadows with delight, The cuckoo then, on every tree, Mocks married men for thus sings he, Cuckoo Cuckoo, cuckoo O, word of fear, Unpleasing to a married ear.
William Shakespeare
In love the heavens themselves do guide the state Money buys lands, and wives are sold by fate.
William Shakespeare
They that touch pitch will be defiled.
William Shakespeare
