More quotes by William Shakespeare
Live loath'd and long, Most smiling, smooth, detested parasites, Courteous destroyers, affable wolves, meek bears, You fools of fortune, trencher friends, time flies Cap and knee slaves, vapors, and minute jacks.
William Shakespeare
Yet this my comfort: when your words are done, My woes end likewise with the evening sun.
William Shakespeare
Eternity was in our lips and eyes, Bliss in our brows' bent none our parts so poor But was a race of heaven.
William Shakespeare
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer's lease hath all too short a date . . .
William Shakespeare
Tis much when sceptres are in children's hands, But more when envy breeds unkind division: There comes the ruin, there begins confusion.
William Shakespeare
Men so noble, However faulty, yet should find respect For what they have been: 'tis a cruelty To load a falling man.
William Shakespeare
Angels are bright still, though the brightest fell.
William Shakespeare
This world is not for aye, nor 'tis not strange That even our loves should with our fortunes change, For 'tis a question left us yet to prove, Whether love lead fortune, or else fortune love.
William Shakespeare
Greatest scandal waits on greatest state.
William Shakespeare
Plain and not honest is too harsh a style.
William Shakespeare
Lords, knights and gentlemen, what I should say My tears gainsay for every word I speak, Ye see I drink the water of my eye.
William Shakespeare
I had rather be a kitten and cry mew Than one of these same metre ballet-mongers.
William Shakespeare
Were it good To set the exact wealth of all our states All at one cast? to set so rich a main On the nice hazard of one doubtful hour? It were not good.
William Shakespeare
Love is . . . a madness most discreet
William Shakespeare
He kills her in her own humor.
William Shakespeare
Thou hast the most unsavoury similes.
William Shakespeare
She marking them begins a wailing note And sings extemporally a woeful ditty How love makes young men thrall and old men dote How love is wise in folly, foolish-witty Her heavy anthem still concludes in woe, And still the choir of echoes answer so.
William Shakespeare
Who has a book of all that monarchs do, He's more secure to keep it shut than shown For vice repeated is like the wand'ring wind, Blows dust in others' eye, to spread itself And yet the end of all is bought thus dear, The breath is gone, and the sore eyes see clear To stop the air would hurt them.
William Shakespeare
There's daggers in men's smiles.
William Shakespeare
This wimpled, whining, purblind, wayward boy, this Senior Junior, giant dwarf...Cupid.
