More quotes by William Shakespeare
A great cause of the night is lack of the sun.
William Shakespeare
When griping grief the heart doth wound, and doleful dumps the mind opresses, then music, with her silver sound, with speedy help doth lend redress.
William Shakespeare
He that commends me to mine own content Commends me to the thing I cannot get. I to the world am like a drop of water That in the ocean seeks another drop, Who, falling there to find his fellow forth, Unseen, inquisitive, confounds himself: So I, to find a mother and a brother, In quest of them, unhappy, lose myself.
William Shakespeare
Eternity was in our lips and eyes.
William Shakespeare
This above all to thine own self be true.
William Shakespeare
How much an ill word may empoison liking!
William Shakespeare
God's will! my liege, would you and I alone, Without more help, could fight this royal battle!
William Shakespeare
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon, Who is already sick and pale with grief That thou, her maid, art far more fair than she. . . .
William Shakespeare
That we would do We should do when we would, for this 'would' changes, And hath abatements and delays as many As there are tongues, are hands, are accidents, And then this 'should' is like a spendthrift sigh, That hurts by easing.
William Shakespeare
Thou weedy elf-skinned canker-blossom!
William Shakespeare
Venus smiles not in a house of tears.
William Shakespeare
Grief fills the room up of my absent child, Lies in his bed, walks up and down with me, Puts on his pretty look, repeats his words, Remembers me of his gracious parts, Stuffs out his vacant garments with his form
William Shakespeare
Thou shalt not stir one foot to seek a foe.
William Shakespeare
A fool's bolt is soon shot.
William Shakespeare
Here's that which is too weak to be a sinner, honest water, which ne'er left man i' the mire.
William Shakespeare
Flout 'em, and scout 'em and scout 'em, and flout 'em / Thought is free.
William Shakespeare
We fail! But screw your courage to the sticking-place, And we'll not fail.
William Shakespeare
Is it not strange, that sheep's guts should hale souls out of men's bodies!
William Shakespeare
A heaven on earth I have won by wooing thee.
William Shakespeare
Diseased Nature oftentimes breaks forth In strange eruptions.
William Shakespeare
