More quotes by William Shakespeare
Experience is by industry achieved, And perfected by the swift course of time.
William Shakespeare
The sense of death is most in apprehension, And the poor beetle, that we tread upon, In corporal sufferance finds a pang as great As when a giant dies.
William Shakespeare
I am a foe to tyrants, and my country's friend.
William Shakespeare
Are you up to your destiny?
William Shakespeare
At Christmas I no more desire a rose Than wish a snow in May's new-fangled mirth But like of each thing that in season grows.
William Shakespeare
She's good, being gone.
William Shakespeare
I see a woman may be made a fool, If she had not a spirit to resist.
William Shakespeare
Yet nor the lays of birds nor the sweet smell Of different flowers in odour and in hue Could make me any summer's story tell, Or from their proud lap pluck them where they grew Nor did I wonder at the lily's white, Nor praise the deep vermilion in the rose They were but sweet, but figures of delight, Drawn after you, you pattern of all those.
William Shakespeare
Then imitate the action of the tiger stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood.
William Shakespeare
They that touch pitch will be defiled.
William Shakespeare
Mine eyes are full of tears, my heart of grief.
William Shakespeare
O that my tongue were in the thunder's mouth! Then with passion would I shake the world.
William Shakespeare
How low am I, thou painted maypole?
William Shakespeare
The worm is not to be trusted.
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
Like a man made after supper of a cheese-paring: when a' was naked, he was, for all the world, like a forked radish, with a head fantastically carved upon it with a knife.
William Shakespeare
The devil knew what he did when he made men politic he crossed himself by it.
William Shakespeare
Beauty is but a vain and doubtful good a shining gloss that fadeth suddenly a flower that dies when it begins to bud a doubtful good, a gloss, a glass, a flower, lost, faded, broken, dead within an hour.
William Shakespeare
Let me have war, say I it exceeds peace as far as day does night it's spritely, waking, audible, and full of vent.
William Shakespeare
Your cause of sorrow must not be measured by his worth, for then it hath no end.
William Shakespeare
