Tis much when sceptres are in children's hands, But more when envy breeds unkind division: There comes the ruin, there begins confusion.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
As in a theatre, the eyes of men, after a well-graced actor leaves the stage, are idly bent on him that enters next.
William Shakespeare
Now stand you on the top of happy hours, And many maiden gardens yet unset, With virtuous wish would bear you living flowers, Much liker than your painted counterfeit: So should the lines of life that life repair Which this, Time's pencil, or my pupil pen Neither in inward worth nor outward fair Can make you live your self in eyes of men.
William Shakespeare
Tis gold Which buys admittance--oft it doth--yea, and makes Diana's rangers false themselves, yield up This deer to th' stand o' th' stealer: and 'tis gold Which makes the true man kill'd and saves the thief, Nay, sometimes hangs both thief and true man.
William Shakespeare

You draw me, you hard-hearted adamant But yet you draw not iron, for my heart Is true as steel: leave you your power to draw, And I shall have no power to follow you.
William Shakespeare
Prosperity's the very bond of love, Whose fresh complexion and whose heart together Affliction alters.
William Shakespeare
The fewer men, the greater share of honor.
William Shakespeare
I should think this a gull, but that the white-bearded fellow speaks it knavery cannot, sure, hide himself in such reverence.
William Shakespeare
