More quotes by William Shakespeare
Hate pollutes the mind.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
To show an unfelt sorrow is an office Which the false man does easy.
William Shakespeare
If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men’s cottages princes’ palaces. It is a good divine that follows his own instructions: I can easier teach twenty what were good to be done, than be one of the twenty to follow mine own teaching.
William Shakespeare
Too much to know is to know nought but fame And every godfather can give a name.

William Shakespeare
The undeserver may sleep when the man of action is called on.
William Shakespeare
The moon of Rome, chaste as the icicle that's curded by the frost from purest snow.

William Shakespeare
Those friends thou hast, and their adoption tried, Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel But do not dull thy palm with entertainment Of each new-hatch'd, unfledg'd comrade.
William Shakespeare
Let the galled jade wince our withers are unwrung.
William Shakespeare
Discharge my followers let them hence away, From Richard's night to Bolingbrooke's fair day.
