More quotes by William Shakespeare
Ah, what a sign it is of evil life, Where death's approach is seen so terrible!
William Shakespeare
Bassanio: Do all men kill all the things they do not love? Shylock: Hates any man the thing he would not kill? Bassanio: Every offence is not a hate at first.
William Shakespeare
The spirit of a youth That means to be of note, begins betimes.
William Shakespeare
With mirth in funeral and with dirge in marriage.
William Shakespeare
He was not so much brain as earwax
William Shakespeare
O, here Will I set up my everlasting rest, And shake the yoke of inauspicious stars From this world-wearied flesh. Eyes, look your last! Arms, take your last embrace! and, lips, O you The doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss A dateless bargain to engrossing death!
William Shakespeare
Let me confess that we two must be twain, although our undivided loves are one.
William Shakespeare
Temptation: the fiend at my elbow.
William Shakespeare
All the world is a stage and we are merely players.
William Shakespeare
The crown o' the earth doth melt. My lord! O, wither'd is the garland of the war, The soldier's pole is fall'n: young boys and girls Are level now with men the odds is gone, And there is nothing left remarkable Beneath the visiting moon.
William Shakespeare
But thou, contracted to thine own bright eyes, Feed'st thy light's flame with self-substantial fuel, Making a famine where abundance lies, Thyself thy foe, to thy sweet self too cruel.
William Shakespeare
Ay me! for aught that I could ever read, Could ever hear by tale or history, The course of true love never did run smooth. But, either it was different in blood,- Or else it stood upon the choice of friends,- Or, if there were a sympathy in choice, War, death, or sickness did lay siege to it.
William Shakespeare
Tell me where is fancy bred, Or in the heart, or in the head? How begot, how nourished? Reply, reply. It is engend'red in the eyes, With gazing fed, and fancy dies In the cradle where it lies.
William Shakespeare
In law, what plea so tainted and corrupts, but being seasoned with a gracious voice obscures the show of evil.
William Shakespeare
Time does not have the same appeal for every one
William Shakespeare
Though authority be a stubborn bear, yet he is oft let by the nose with gold.
William Shakespeare
... And death unloads thee.
William Shakespeare
When words are scarce they are seldom spent in vain.
William Shakespeare
Is this a dagger which I see before me, The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee. I have thee not, and yet I see thee still. Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible To feeling as to sight? or art thou but A dagger of the mind, a false creation, Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?
William Shakespeare
By the apostle Paul, shadows tonight Have struck more terror to the soul of Richard Than can the substance of ten thousand soldiers.
