More quotes by William Shakespeare
True, I talk of dreams, Which are the children of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy.
William Shakespeare
Love goes toward love as schoolboys from their books, But love from love, toward school with heavy looks.
William Shakespeare
Unhappy that I am, I cannot heave My heart into my mouth.
William Shakespeare
Time is the old justice that examines all such offenders, and let Time try.
William Shakespeare
O, what damned minutes tells he o'er Who dotes, yet doubts, suspects, yet fondly loves!
William Shakespeare
How every fool can play upon the word!
William Shakespeare
For what I will, I will, and there an end.
William Shakespeare
Now the melancholy of God protect thee, and the tailor make thy doublet of changable taffata, for thy mind is a very opal. I would have men of such constancy put to sea, that their business might be everything, and their intent everywhere, for that's it, that always makes a good voyage of nothing.
William Shakespeare
Faith, stay here this night they will surely do us no harm you saw they speak us fair, give us gold methinks they are such a gentle nation that, but for the mountain of mad flesh that claims marriage of me, could find in my heart to stay here still and turn witch.
William Shakespeare
Most dangerous is that temptation that doth goad us on to sin in loving virtue.
William Shakespeare
Time is like a fashionable host That slightly shakes his parting guest by the hand, And with his arm outstretch'd, as he would fly, Grasps in the comer.
William Shakespeare
Prophet may you be! If I be false, or swerve a hair from truth, when time is old and hath forgot itself, when waterdrops have worn the stones of Troy, and blind oblivion swallowed cities up, and mighty states characterless are grated to dusty nothing, yet let memory, from false to false, among false maids in love, upbraid my falsehood!
William Shakespeare
It is a heretic that makes the fire, Not she which burns in it.
William Shakespeare
God shall be my hope, my stay, my guide and lantern to my feet.
William Shakespeare
Pastime passing excellent, if it he husbanded with modesty.
William Shakespeare
If you would persuade, you must appeal to interest rather than intellect. We are advertis'd by our loving friends.
William Shakespeare
All's well if all ends well.
William Shakespeare
What light through yonder window breaks?
William Shakespeare
We are advertis'd by our loving friends.
William Shakespeare
Love, which teacheth me that thou and I am one
William Shakespeare
