More quotes by William Shakespeare
An habitation giddy and unsure Hath he that buildeth on the vulgar heart.
William Shakespeare
And she's fair I love.
William Shakespeare
Ay, in the catalogue ye go for men As hounds, and greyhounds, mongrels, spaniels, curs, Shoughs, water-rugs, and demi-wolves, are 'clept All by the name of dogs: the valued file Distinguishes the swift, the slow, the subtle, The housekeeper, the hunter, every one According to the gift which bounteous nature Hath in him closed.
William Shakespeare
But as the unthought-on accident is guilty To what we wildly do, so we profess Ourselves to be the slaves of chance, and flies Of every wind that blows.
William Shakespeare
Come, seeling night, Scarf up the tender eye of pitiful day, And with thy bloody and invisible hand Cancel and tear to pieces that great bond Which keeps me pale. Light thickens, and the crow Makes wing to th' rooky wood. Good things of day begin to droop and drowse, While night's black agents to their prey do rouse.
William Shakespeare
Pray you now, forget and forgive.
William Shakespeare
To hold, as 't were, the mirror up to nature.
William Shakespeare
O, how I faint when I of you do write, Knowing a better spirit doth use your name, And in the praise thereof spends all his might To make me tongue-tied speaking of your fame.
William Shakespeare
Speak, my fair, and fairly, I pray thee.
William Shakespeare
Do not plunge thyself too far in anger.
William Shakespeare
The purest treasure mortal times can afford is a spotless reputation.
William Shakespeare
How use doth breed a habit in a man.
William Shakespeare
And nothing can we call our own but death And that small model of the barren earth Which serves as paste and cover to our bones. For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground And tell sad stories of the death of kings.
William Shakespeare
For trust not him that hath once broken faith
William Shakespeare
Out of my sight! Thou dost infect mine eyes.
William Shakespeare
Tis no sin for a man to labor in his vocation.
William Shakespeare
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing end them?
William Shakespeare
The hand that hath made you fair hath made you good. Pity is the virtue of the law, and none but tyrants use it cruelly.
William Shakespeare
Silence is the perfect herald of joy.
William Shakespeare
While we lie tumbling in the hay.
William Shakespeare
