More quotes by William Shakespeare
Time and the hour run through the roughest day.
William Shakespeare
Steed threatens steed, in high and boastful neighs Piercing the night's dull ear and from the tents The armorers accomplishing the knights, With busy hammers closing rivets up, Give dreadful note of preparation.
William Shakespeare
A pair of star-crossed lovers.
William Shakespeare
Love comforteth like sunshine after rain, But Lust's effect is tempest after sun Love's gentle spring doth always fresh remain, Lust's winter comes ere summer half be done Love surfeits not, Lust like a glutton dies Love is all truth, Lust full of forged lies.
William Shakespeare
When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married.
William Shakespeare
There was never yet fair woman but she made mouths in a glass.
William Shakespeare
I am not bound to please thee with my answer.
William Shakespeare
What a pretty thing man is when he goes in his doublet and hose and leaves off his wit!
William Shakespeare
Friendship is constant in all other things Save in the office and affairs of love. Therefore all hearts in love use their own tongues. Let every eye negotiate for itself, And trust no agent for beauty is a witch Against whose charms faith melteth into blood.
William Shakespeare
Drink down all unkindness.
William Shakespeare
Thou shalt be free As mountain winds: but then exactly do All points of my command.
William Shakespeare
O, then I see Queen Mab hath been with you. . . . She is the fairies’ midwife, and she comes In shape no bigger than an agate stone On the forefinger of an alderman, Drawn with a team of little atomi Athwart men’s noses as they lie asleep.
William Shakespeare
Like a red morn that ever yet betokened, Wreck to the seaman, tempest to the field, Sorrow to the shepherds, woe unto the birds, Gusts and foul flaws to herdmen and to herds.
William Shakespeare
Death makes no conquest of this conqueror: For now he lives in fame, though not in life.
William Shakespeare
Honor's thought Reigns solely in the breast of every man.
William Shakespeare
Affliction is enamoured of thy parts, And thou art wedded to calamity.
William Shakespeare
I have very poor and unhappy brains for drinking: I could well wish courtesy would invent some other custom of entertainment.
William Shakespeare
I would not lose so great an honor As one man more methinks would share with me For the best hope I have.
William Shakespeare
The king is but a man, as I am the violet smells to him as it doth to me the element shows to him as it doth to me all his senses have but human conditions his ceremonies laid by, in his nakedness he appears but a man and though his affections are higher mounted than ours, yet, when they stoop, they stoop with the like wing.
William Shakespeare
Fie, fie, how frantically I square my talk!
William Shakespeare
