Letter "W" » William Shakespeare Quotes
«Thou hast nor youth nor age;But, as it were, an after-dinner's sleep,Dreaming on both.»
«I swear 'tis better to be lowly born,And range with humble livers in content,Than to be perked up in a glistering grief,And wear a golden sorrow.»
«O coward conscience, how dost thou afflict me!»
«Thou hast most traitorously corrupted the youth of the realm in erecting a grammar school; and whereas, before, our forefathers had no other books but the score and the tally, thou hast caused printing to be used, and, contrary to the king, his crown and dignity, thou hast built a paper-mill.»
«Thou hast no speculation in those eyesWhich thou dost glare with!»
«[Your] horrid image doth unfix my hair.»
«Literature is a comprehensive essence of the intellectual life of a nation.»
«Our revels now are ended. These our actors,As I foretold you, were all spirits andAre melted into air, into thin air:And, like the baseless fabric of this vision,The cloud-capp'd towers, the gorgeous palaces,The solemn temples, the great globe itself,Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolveAnd, like this insubstantial pageant faded,Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuffAs dreams are made on, and our little lifeIs rounded with a sleep.»
«Now if these men do not die well, it will be a black matter for the king who led them to it.»
«When lenity and cruelty play for a kingdom, the gentler gamester is the soonest winner.»
