More quotes by William Shakespeare
Virtue itself scapes not calumnious strokes.
William Shakespeare
Taffeta phrases, silken terms precise, Three-piled hyperboles, spruce affection, Figures pedantical--these summer flies Have blown me full of maggot ostentation.
William Shakespeare
Frame your mind to mirth and merriment which bars a thousand harms and lengthens life.
William Shakespeare
Children wish fathers looked but with their eyes fathers that children with their judgment looked and either may be wrong.
William Shakespeare
In thy youth wast as true a lover, As ever sighed upon a midnight pillow
William Shakespeare
If you would persuade, you must appeal to interest rather than intellect. We are advertis'd by our loving friends.
William Shakespeare
Love, whose month is ever May, Spied a blossom passing fair, Playing in the wanton air: Through the velvet leaves the wind, All unseen can passage find That the lover, sick to death, Wish'd himself the heaven's breath.
William Shakespeare
It is not night when I do see your face.
William Shakespeare
Lechery, lechery still, wars and lechery: nothing else holds fashion.
William Shakespeare
I am a Jew: Hath not a Jew eyes? hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? fed with die same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer, as a Christian is?
William Shakespeare
The plants look up to heaven, from whence they have their nourishment.
William Shakespeare
And will he not come again? And will he not come again? No, no, he is dead. Go to thy deathbed. He never will come again.
William Shakespeare
For a noble heart, the most precious gift becomes poor, when the giver stops loving.
William Shakespeare
Strikes deeper, grows with more pernicious root.
William Shakespeare
Let me be that I am and seek not to alter me.
William Shakespeare
Some Cupid kills with arrows, some with traps.
William Shakespeare
To wilful men, the injuries that they themselves procure must be their schoolmasters.
William Shakespeare
The will is deaf and hears no heedful friends.
William Shakespeare
Most friendship is faining, most loving mere folly: Then, heigh-ho, the holly. This life is most jolly.
William Shakespeare
After your death you were better have a bad epitaph than their ill report while you live.
William Shakespeare
