William Shakespeare

A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool.
William Shakespeare

A man loves the meat in his youth that he cannot endure in his age.
William Shakespeare

A peace is of the nature of a conquest; for then both parties nobly are subdued, and neither party loser.
William Shakespeare

Absence from those we love is self from self - a deadly banishment.
William Shakespeare

Alas, I am a woman friendless, hopeless!
William Shakespeare

All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players: they have their exits and their entrances; and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages.
William Shakespeare

Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.
William Shakespeare

An overflow of good converts to bad.
William Shakespeare

And oftentimes excusing of a fault doth make the fault the worse by the excuse.
William Shakespeare

And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.
William Shakespeare

As flies to wanton boys, are we to the gods; they kill us for their sport.
William Shakespeare

As he was valiant, I honour him. But as he was ambitious, I slew him.
William Shakespeare

As soon go kindle fire with snow, as seek to quench the fire of love with words.
William Shakespeare

Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.
William Shakespeare

Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.
William Shakespeare

Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.
William Shakespeare

Boldness be my friend.
William Shakespeare

Brevity is the soul of wit.
William Shakespeare

But men are men; the best sometimes forget.
William Shakespeare

But O, how bitter a thing it is to look into happiness through another man's eyes.
William Shakespeare

so well as by reflection, I, your glass,

Thou art not so unkind,
As man's ingratitude. William Shakespeare Conversation should be pleasant without scurrility, witty without affectation, free without indecency, learned without conceitedness, novel without falsehood. William ShakespeareFor they are yet ear-kissing arguments. William Shakespeare Free from gross passion or of mirth or anger
constant in spirit, not swerving with the blood,
garnish'd and deck'd in modest compliment,
not working with the eye without the ear,
and but in purged judgement trusting neither?
Such and so finely bolted didst thou seem. William ShakespeareGlory is like a circle in the water,
Which never ceaseth to enlarge itself,

So mixed in him, that Nature might stand up,

than lying, vainness, babbling, drunkenness,
or any taint of vice whose strong corruption
inhabits our frail blood. William ShakespeareI must be cruel only to be kind;
Thus bad begins, and worse remains behind. William ShakespeareI pray thee cease thy counsel,
Which falls into mine ears as profitless
as water in a sieve. William ShakespeareI pray you bear me henceforth from the noise and rumour of the field, where I may think the remnant of my thoughts in peace, and part of this body and my soul with contemplation and devout desires. William ShakespeareI wasted time, and now doth time waste me. William ShakespeareI wish you well and so I take my leave,
I Pray you know me when we meet again. William ShakespeareIll deeds are doubled with an evil word. William Shakespeare In a false quarrel there is no true valour.
