More quotes by William Shakespeare
The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together: our virtues would be proud if our faults whipped them not and our crimes would despair if they were not cherished by our own virtues.
William Shakespeare
To fear the foe, since fear oppresseth strength, Gives, in your weakness, strength unto your foe, And so your follies fight against yourself. Fear, and be slain--so worse can come to fight And fight and die is death destroying death, Where fearing dying pays death servile breath.
William Shakespeare
Our peace shall stand as firm as rocky mountains.
William Shakespeare
It is the mind that makes the body rich and as the sun breaks through the darkest clouds, so honor peereth in the meanest habit.
William Shakespeare
Angels and ministers of grace defend us.
William Shakespeare
For I am proverbed with a grandsire phrase.
William Shakespeare
Things bad begun make strong themselves by ill.
William Shakespeare
I thank God I am not a woman, to be touched in so many giddy offences as He hath generally taxed their whole their whole sex withal.
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
Set we forward let A Roman and a British ensign wave Friendly together. So through Lud's town march, And in the temple of the great Jupiter Our peace we'll ratify, seal it with feasts. Set on there! Never was a war did cease, Ere bloody hands were washed, with such a peace.
William Shakespeare
Opinion, a sovereign mistress of effects.
William Shakespeare
These are the forgeries of jealousy And never, since the middle summer's spring, Met we on hill, in dale, forest, or mead, By paved fountain or by rushy brook, Or in the beached margent of the sea, To dance our ringlets to the whistling wind, But with thy brawls thou hast disturbed our sport.
William Shakespeare
Mind your speech a little lest you should mar your fortunes.
William Shakespeare
Let me tell you, Cassius, you yourself are much condemned to have an itching palm.
William Shakespeare
Yet do I fear thy nature It is too full o' the milk of human kindness To catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great Art not without ambition, but without The illness should attend it: what thou wouldst highly, That wouldst thou holily wouldst not play false, And yet wouldst wrongly win.
William Shakespeare
Fortune reigns in gifts of the world.
William Shakespeare
O, then, what graces in my love do dwell, that he hath turn'd a heaven unto hell
William Shakespeare
Who could refrain that had a heart to love and in that heart courage to make love known?
William Shakespeare
Alas, sir, how fell you besides your five wits? Malvolio: Fool, there was never a man so notoriously abused. I am as well in my wits, fool, as thou art. Feste: But as well? Then you are mad indeed, if you be no better in you wits than a fool.
William Shakespeare
Be just, and fear not. Let all the ends thou aim'st at be thy country's, Thy God's and truth's.
William Shakespeare
