More quotes by William Shakespeare
Modest doubt is called the beacon of the wise.
William Shakespeare
By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes.
William Shakespeare
For as a surfeit of the sweetest things The deepest loathing to the stomach brings, Or as tie heresies that men do leave Are hated most of those they did deceive, So thou, my surfeit and my heresy, Of all be hated, but the most of me!
William Shakespeare
Lawn as white as driven snow Cyprus black as e'er was crow Gloves as sweet as damask roses.
William Shakespeare
To be a well-favoured man is the gift of fortune but to write and read comes by nature.
William Shakespeare
Let me tell you, Cassius, you yourself are much condemned to have an itching palm.
William Shakespeare
Let there be gall enough in thy ink, though thou write with a goose-pen, no matter.
William Shakespeare
O, the difference of man and man! To thee a woman's services are due.
William Shakespeare
Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by
William Shakespeare
I'll forbear And am fallen out with my more headier will To take the indisposed and sickly fit For the sound man.
William Shakespeare
Some glory in their birth , some in their skill , Some in their wealth , some in their bodies' force , Some in their garments, though new-fangled ill Some in their hawks and hounds , some in their horse And every humor hath his adjunct pleasure , Wherein it finds a joy above the rest .
William Shakespeare
Lions make leopards tame.
William Shakespeare
Now, neighbor confines, purge you of your scum! Have you a ruffian that will swear, drink, dance, revel the night, rob, murder, and commit the oldest sins the newest kind of ways?
William Shakespeare
Perseverance, my dear Lord. Keeps honour bright.
William Shakespeare
Beshrew the heart that makes my heart to groan.
William Shakespeare
That we would do We should do when we would, for this 'would' changes, And hath abatements and delays as many As there are tongues, are hands, are accidents, And then this 'should' is like a spendthrift sigh, That hurts by easing.
William Shakespeare
They have a plentiful lack of wit.
William Shakespeare
With love's light wings did I o'er-perch these walls, for stony limits cannot hold love out
William Shakespeare
Is this a dagger which I see before me, The handle toward my hand?
William Shakespeare
Slander, whose whisper over the world's diameter, as level as the cannon to its blank, transports its poisoned shot.
William Shakespeare
