More quotes by William Shakespeare
With caution judge of probability. Things deemed unlikely, e'en impossible, experience oft hath proved to be true.
William Shakespeare
No, Cassius for the eye sees not itself, But by reflection, by some other things.
William Shakespeare
All days are nights to see till I see thee, And nights bright days when dreams do show thee me.
William Shakespeare
Absence doth sharpen love, presence strengthens it the one brings fuel, the other blows it till it burns clear.
William Shakespeare
There's rosemary and rue. These keep Seeming and savor all the winter long. Grace and remembrance be to you.
William Shakespeare
I feel within me a peace above all earthly dignities, a still and quiet conscience.
William Shakespeare
Yet nor the lays of birds nor the sweet smell Of different flowers in odour and in hue Could make me any summer's story tell, Or from their proud lap pluck them where they grew Nor did I wonder at the lily's white, Nor praise the deep vermilion in the rose They were but sweet, but figures of delight, Drawn after you, you pattern of all those.
William Shakespeare
By heaven, I do love: and it hath taught me to rhyme, and to be mekancholy.
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
If the skin were parchment and the blows you gave were ink, Your own handwriting would tell you what I think.
William Shakespeare
Marriage is a matter of more worth Than to be dealt in by attorneyship.
William Shakespeare
The horn, the horn, the lusty horn Is not a thing to laugh to scorn.
William Shakespeare
You cannot, sir, take from me any thing that I will more willingly part withal: except my life, except my life, except my life.
William Shakespeare
Beauty provoketh thieves sooner than gold.
William Shakespeare
Great men should drink with harness on their throats.
William Shakespeare
Experience is by industry achieved, And perfected by the swift course of time.
William Shakespeare
The summer's flow'r is to the summer sweet, Though to itself it only live and die' But if that flow'r with base infection meet, The basest weed outbraves his dignity: For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds.
William Shakespeare
By the apostle Paul, shadows tonight Have struck more terror to the soul of Richard Than can the substance of ten thousand soldiers.
William Shakespeare
There is Throats to be cut, and Works to be done.
William Shakespeare
Thou art a soul in bliss but I am bound Upon a wheel of fire that mine own tears Do scald like molten lead.
William Shakespeare
