Quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

The man that hath no music in himself, Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils.

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

But O, how bitter a thing it is to look into happiness through another mans eyes.

Like as the waves make towards the pebbld shore, so do our minutes, hasten to their end.

We are times subjects, and time bids be gone.

Mens vows are womens traitors!

But men are men the best sometimes forget.

There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so.

Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow, that I shall say good night till it be morrow.

How far that little candle throws its beams! So shines a good deed in a naughty world.

Talking isnt doing. It is a kind of good deed to say well and yet words are not deeds.

Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt.

The evil that men do lives after them the good is oft interred with their bones.

God has given you one face, and you make yourself another.

Ignorance is the curse of God knowledge is the wing wherewith we fly to heaven.

Things done well and with a care, exempt themselves from fear.

Boldness be my friend.

Who could refrain that had a heart to love and in that heart courage to make love known?

Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.
