More quotes by William Shakespeare
Unnatural deeds Do breed unnatural troubles: infected minds To their deaf pillows will discharge their secrets.
William Shakespeare
With love's light wings did I o'er-perch these walls, for stony limits cannot hold love out
William Shakespeare
You see me here, you gods, a poor old man, As full of grief as age wretched in both.
William Shakespeare
Things sweet to taste prove in digestion sour.
William Shakespeare
To fear the foe, since fear oppresseth strength, Gives, in your weakness, strength unto your foe, And so your follies fight against yourself. Fear, and be slain--so worse can come to fight And fight and die is death destroying death, Where fearing dying pays death servile breath.
William Shakespeare
Love is too young to know what conscience is.
William Shakespeare
So full of shapes is fancy That it alone is high fantastical.
William Shakespeare
What infinite heart's-ease Must kings neglect that private men enjoy! And what have kings that privates have not too, Save ceremony, save general ceremony?
William Shakespeare
O, what damned minutes tells he o'er Who dotes, yet doubts, suspects, yet fondly loves!
William Shakespeare
Therefore it is most expedient for the wise, if Don Worm (his conscience) find no impediment to the contrary, to be the trumpet of his own virtues, as I am to myself.
William Shakespeare
No evil lost is wailed when it is gone.
William Shakespeare
I am as vigilant as a cat to steal cream.
William Shakespeare
The eagle suffers little birds to sing.
William Shakespeare
These cardinals trifle with me I abhor This dilatory sloth and tricks of Rome.
William Shakespeare
I am indeed, sir, a surgeon to old shoes when they are in great danger I recover them.
William Shakespeare
They that stand high have many blasts to shake them.
William Shakespeare
Guiltiness will speak, though tongues were out of use
William Shakespeare
Death, that hath suck'd the honey of thy breath hath had no power yet upon thy beauty.
William Shakespeare
Full many a lady I have eyed with best regard, and many a time Th' harmony of their tongues hath into bondage Brought my too diligent ear for several virtues Have I liked several women never any With so full soul but some defect in her Did quarrel with the noblest grace she owed, And put it to the foil.
William Shakespeare
All things that we ordained festival Turn from their office to black funeral-- Our instruments to melancholy bells, Our wedding cheer to a sad burial feast Our solemn hymns to sullen dirges change Our bridal flowers serve for a buried corse And all things change them to the contrary.
William Shakespeare
