More quotes by William Shakespeare
He's of the colour of the nutmeg. And of the heat of the ginger.... he is pure air and fire and the dull elements of earth and water never appear in him, but only in patient stillness while his rider mounts him he is indeed a horse, and all other jades you may call beasts.
William Shakespeare
Dream on, dream on, of bloody deeds and death.
William Shakespeare
For night's swift dragons cut the clouds full fast, And yonder shines Aurora's harbinger At whose approach ghosts wandring here and there Troop home to church-yards.... For fear lest day should look their shames upon, They willfully exile themselves from light, And must for aye consort with black brow'd night.
William Shakespeare
Oft expectation fails, and most oft there where most it promises and oft it hits where hope is coldest, and despair most fits.
William Shakespeare
It easeth some, though none it ever cured, to think their dolour others have endured.
William Shakespeare
Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly.
William Shakespeare
Fore God, you have here a goodly dwelling and a rich.
William Shakespeare
Get thee glass eyes, and like a scurvy politician, seem to see the things thou dost not.
William Shakespeare
And when love speaks, the voice of all the gods makes Heaven drowsy with the harmony.
William Shakespeare
For to be wise and love exceeds man's might.
William Shakespeare
But flies an eagle flight, bold and forth on, Leaving no tract behind.
William Shakespeare
Reputation is an idle and most false imposition oft got without merit, and lost without deserving.
William Shakespeare
You take my house when you do take the prop That doth sustain my house you take my life When you do take the means whereby I live.
William Shakespeare
So far be distant and good night, sweet friend: thy love ne'er alter, till they sweet life end
William Shakespeare
That is my home of love: if I have ranged, Like him that travels I return again, Just to the time, not with the time exchanged.
William Shakespeare
The Brightness of her cheek would shame those stars as daylight doth a lamp her eyes in heaven would through the airy region stream so bright that birds would sing, and think it were not night.
William Shakespeare
And nothing is, but what is not.
William Shakespeare
Young Adam Cupid, he that shot so trim, When King Cophetua loved the beggar-maid!
William Shakespeare
Let me say amen betimes lest the devil cross my prayer, for here he comes in the likeness of a Jew.
William Shakespeare
If circumstances lead me, I will find Where truth is hid, though it were hid indeed Within the centre.
William Shakespeare
