A wretched soul, bruised with adversity,
We bid be quiet when we hear it cry;
But were we burdened with like weight of pain,
As much or more we should ourselves complain.
William Shakespeare
And since you know you cannot see yourself,
so well as by reflection, I, your glass,
will modestly discover to yourself,
that of yourself which you yet know not of.
William Shakespeare
And thus I clothe my naked villainy
With old odd ends, stol'n forth of holy writ;
And seem a saint, when most I play the devil.
William Shakespeare
Assume a virtue, if you have it not.
William Shakespeare
Be great in act, as you have been in thought.
William Shakespeare
Blow, blow, thou winter wind
Thou art not so unkind,
As man's ingratitude.
William Shakespeare
- More quotations on: [Winter]
Conversation should be pleasant without scurrility, witty without affectation, free without indecency, learned without conceitedness, novel without falsehood.
William Shakespeare
Cowards die many times before their deaths,
The valiant never taste of death but once.
William Shakespeare
For 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 Shakespeare
