More quotes by William Shakespeare
So sweet was ne'er so fatal. I must weep. But they are creul tears. This sorrow's heavenly it strikes where it doth love.
William Shakespeare
O no, thy love though much, is not so great, It is my love that keeps mine eye awake, Mine own true love that doth my rest defeat, To play the watchman ever for thy sake. For thee watch I, whilst thou dost wake elsewhere, From me far off, with others all too near.
William Shakespeare
Unless the old adage must be verified, That beggars mounted, run their horse to death.
William Shakespeare
I am ill at these numbers.
William Shakespeare
Supposition all our lives shall be stuck full of eyes For treason is but trusted like the fox, Who, ne'er so tame, so cherished and locked up, Will have a wild trick of his ancestors.
William Shakespeare
Never durst poet touch a pen to write Until his ink were temper'd with Love's sighs.
William Shakespeare
He must needs go that the devil drives.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Let him smell his way to Dover!
William Shakespeare
Things won are done, joy's soul lies in the doing.
William Shakespeare
I bear a charmed life.
William Shakespeare
A knot you are of damned bloodsuckers.
William Shakespeare
Men at some time are masters of their fates.
William Shakespeare
A light wife doth make a heavy husband.
William Shakespeare
We make guilty of our disasters the sun, the moon, and the stars as if we were villians by compulsion.
William Shakespeare
The Thane of Cawdor lives, A prosperous gentleman and to be King Stands not within the prospect of belief, No more than to be Cawdor.
William Shakespeare
We must every one be a man of his own fancy.
William Shakespeare
I do beseech you- Though I perchance am vicious in my guess , that your wisdom yet From one that so imperfectly conjects Would take no notice, nor build yourself a trouble Out of his scattering and unsure observance.
William Shakespeare
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips, Straining upon the start. The game's afoot Follow your spirit: and upon this charge, Cry — God for Harry! England and Saint George!
William Shakespeare
A plague of sighing and grief! It blows a man up like a bladder.
William Shakespeare
