More quotes by William Shakespeare
When truth kills truth, O devilish holy fray!
William Shakespeare
How poor are they that have not patience! What wound did ever heal but by degrees?
William Shakespeare
Beware Of entrance to a quarrel but being in, Bear't that the opposed may beware of thee. Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgment. Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, But not express'd in fancy rich, not gaudy For the apparel oft proclaims the man.
William Shakespeare
Lives like a drunken sailor on a mast, Ready with every nod to tumble down Into the fatal bowels of the deep.
William Shakespeare
His neigh is like the bidding of a monarch, and his countenance enforces homage. He is indeed a horse.
William Shakespeare
Thus have I, Wall, my part discharged so And, being done, thus Wall away doth go.
William Shakespeare
We must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
William Shakespeare
It is great To do that thing that ends all other deeds, Which shackles accidents and bolts up change.
William Shakespeare
You, and your lady, Take from my heart all thankfulness!
William Shakespeare
You know who you are, but know not who you could be.
William Shakespeare
What, gone without a word? Ay, so true love should do it cannot speak, For truth hath better deeds than words to grace it.
William Shakespeare
Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war!
William Shakespeare
Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty.
William Shakespeare
I, measuring his affections by my own, Which then most sought where most might not be found, Being one too many by my weary self, Pursued my humor not pursuing his, And gladly shunned who gladly fled from me.
William Shakespeare
Sweet mercy is nobility's true badge.
William Shakespeare
Thy wish was father, Harry, to that thought.
William Shakespeare
As there comes light from heaven and words from breath, As there is sense in truth and truth in virtue
William Shakespeare
The undeserver may sleep when the man of action is called on.
William Shakespeare
Make passionate my sense of hearing.
William Shakespeare
If thou dost seek to have what thou dost hide, By self-example mayst thou be denied.
William Shakespeare
