More quotes by William Shakespeare
The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together: our virtues would be proud if our faults whipped them not and our crimes would despair if they were not cherished by our own virtues.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
'Tis thought the king is dead we will not stay. The bay trees in our country are all wither'd.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Time is like a fashionable host That slightly shakes his parting guest by the hand, And with his arm outstretch'd, as he would fly, Grasps in the comer.

William Shakespeare
O, how I faint when I of you do write, Knowing a better spirit doth use your name, And in the praise thereof spends all his might To make me tongue-tied speaking of your fame.
William Shakespeare
Never anger made good guard for itself.
William Shakespeare
Having nothing, nothing can he lose.
William Shakespeare
Ships are but boards, sailors but men there be land-rats and water-rats, water-thieves and land-thieves, I mean pirates, and thenthere is the peril of waters, winds, and rocks.
William Shakespeare
There's not a shirt and a half in all my company, and the half shirt is two napkins tacked together and thrown over the shoulders like a herald's coat without sleeves.
William Shakespeare
Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds.
William Shakespeare
