More quotes by William Shakespeare
A fool, a fool! I met a fool i' th' forest, A motley fool! a miserable world! As I do live by food, I met a fool Who laid him down and basked him in the sun And railed on Lady Fortune in good terms, In good set terms, and yet a motley fool.
William Shakespeare
The devil knew what he did when he made men politic he crossed himself by it.
William Shakespeare
Away! Thou'rt poison to my blood.
William Shakespeare
If thou art rich, thou art poor for, like an ass, whose back with ingots bows, thou bearest thy heavy riches but a journey, and death unloads thee.

William Shakespeare

He does me double wrong That wounds me with the flatteries of his tongue.
William Shakespeare
My love is as a fever, longing still.
William Shakespeare
My love is as a fever, longing still For that which longer nurseth the disease, Feeding on that which doth preserve the ill, Th' uncertain sickly appetite to please. My reason, the physician to my love, Angry that his prescriptions are not kept, Hath left me, and I desperate now approve Desire is death, which physic did except.
William Shakespeare
What is done cannot be now amended.
William Shakespeare
Report of fashions in proud Italy Whose manners still our tardy-apish nation Limps after in base imitation
William Shakespeare
Though I be but prince of Wales, yet I am the king of courtesy.
William Shakespeare
There was never yet fair woman but she made mouths in a glass.
William Shakespeare
Nothing 'gainst Times scythe can make defence.
William Shakespeare
We were not born to sue, but to command.
William Shakespeare
