William Shakeshpeare

1.            Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.
2.            If you prick us do we not bleed? If you tickle us do we not laugh? If you poison us do we not die? And if you wrong us shall we not revenge?
3.            The wheel is come full circle.
4.            Hell is empty and all the devils are here.
5.            It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.
6.            God has given you one face, and you make yourself another.
7.            Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more; it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
8.            To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.
9.            If music be the food of love, play on.
10.        Ignorance is the curse of God; knowledge is the wing wherewith we fly to heaven.
11.        When a father gives to his son, both laugh; when a son gives to his father, both cry.
12.        Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow, that I shall say good night till it be morrow.
13.        Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once.
14.        The course of true love never did run smooth.
15.        Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.
16.        A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows him to be a fool.
17.        As soon go kindle fire with snow, as seek to quench the fire of love with words.
18.        Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.
19.        There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so.
20.        It is a wise father that knows his own child.
21.        Suspicion always haunts the guilty mind.
22.        Listen to many, speak to a few.
23.        And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.
24.        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.
25.        Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.
26.        The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.
27.        Come, gentlemen, I hope we shall drink down all unkindness.
28.        No legacy is as rich as honesty.
29.        The evil that men do lives after them; the good is oft interred with their bones.
30.        A peace is of the nature of a conquest; for then both parties nobly are subdued, and neither party loser.
31.        What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.
32.        But O, how bitter a thing it is to look into happiness through another man's eyes.
33.        Love to faults is always blind, always is to joy inclined. Lawless, winged, and unconfined, and breaks all chains from every mind.
34.        There is a tide in the affairs of men, which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
35.        Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs.
36.        Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt.
37.        An overflow of good converts to bad.
38.        And why not death rather than living torment? To die is to be banish'd for myself; and Silvia is I: banish'd for her is self from self: a deadly banishment!
39.        Women may fall when there's no strength in men.
40.        How far that little candle throws its beams! So shines a good deed in a naughty world.
41.        Now, God be praised, that to believing souls gives light in darkness, comfort in despair.
42.        How poor are they that have not patience! What wound did ever heal but by degrees?
43.        Love sought is good, but given unsought, is better.
44.        Talking isn't doing. It is a kind of good deed to say well; and yet words are not deeds.
45.        A man loves the meat in his youth that he cannot endure in his age.
46.        Words without thoughts never to heaven go.
47.        The man that hath no music in himself, nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils.
48.        False face must hide what the false heart doth know.
49.        The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.
50.        With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come.
51.        Men are April when they woo, December when they wed. Maids are May when they are maids, but the sky changes when they are wives.
52.        This above all; to thine own self is true.
53.        Who could refrain that had a heart to love and in that heart courage to make love known?
54.        We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
55.        Life is as tedious as a twice-told tale, vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man.
56.        When we are born we cry that we are come to this great stage of fools.
57.        Fishes live in the sea, as men do a-land; the great ones eat up the little ones.
58.        Give thy thoughts no tongue.
59.        Speak low, if you speak love.
60.        Modest doubt is called the beacon of the wise.
61.        And oftentimes excusing of a fault doth make the fault the worse by the excuse.
62.        Boldness is my friend.
63.        Let me embrace thee, sour adversity, for wise men say it is the wisest course.
64.        I am not bound to please thee with my answer.
65.        One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.
66.        Pleasure and action make the hours seem short.
67.        Reputation is an idle and most false imposition; oft got without merit, and lost without deserving.
68.        In time we hate that which we often fear.
69.        Life every man holds dear; but the dear man holds honor far more precious dear than life.
70.        Love is too young to know what conscience is.
71.        Alas, I am a woman friendless, hopeless!
72.        I say there is no darkness but ignorance.
73.        Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.
74.        No, I will be the pattern of all patience; I will say nothing.
75.        Go to your bosom: Knock there, and ask your heart what it doth know.
76.        I may neither choose whom I would, nor refuse who I dislike; so is the will of a living daughter curbed by the will of a dead father.
77.        If we are marked to die, we are enough to do our country loss; and if to live, the fewer men, the greater share of honor.
78.        Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice.
79.        O! Let me not be mad, not mad, sweet heaven; keep me in temper; I would not be mad!
80.        The robbed that smiles, steals something from the thief.
81.        The golden age is before us, not behind us.
82.        Love is not love that alters when it alteration finds.
83.        When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions.
84.        How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child!
85.        I had rather have a fool to make me merry than experience to make me sad and to travel for it too!
86.        The most peaceable way for you, if you do take a thief, is, to let him show himself what he is and steal out of your company.
87.        I hold the world but as the world, Gratiano; a stage where every man must play a part, And mine is a sad one.
88.        The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
89.        The love of heaven makes one heavenly.
90.        God has given you one face, and you make yourselves another.
91.        Things done well and with a care, exempt themselves from fear.
92.        Children wish fathers looked but with their eyes; fathers that children with their judgment looked; and either may be wrong.
93.        If you can look into the seeds of time, and say which grain will grow and which will not, speak then unto me.
94.        By that sin fell the angels.
95.        The desire of having is the sin of covetousness.
96.        As he was valiant, I honor him. But as he was ambitious, I slew him.
97.        Having nothing, nothing can he lose?
98.        What's done can't be undone.
99.        There's many a man has more hair than wit.
100.     But men are men; the best sometimes forget.
101.     I wasted time, and now doth time waste me.
102.     They do not love that do not show their love.
103.     Give me my robe, put on my crown; I have Immortal longings in me.
104.     Let every eye negotiate for itself and trust no agent.
105.     The poor and content is rich, and rich enough.
106.     Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall.
107.     There is no darkness but ignorance.
108.     Maids want nothing but husbands, and when they have them, they want everything.
109.     What is past is prologue.
110.     Brevity is the soul of wit.
111.     Lawless are they that make their wills their law.
112.     The undiscovered country from whose borne no traveler returns.
113.     My crown is called content, a crown that seldom kings enjoy.
114.     The very substance of the ambitious is merely the shadow of a dream.
115.     Faith, there had been many great men that have flattered the people who ne'er loved them.
116.     The lunatic, the lover, and the poet, are of imagination all compact.
117.     If it is a sin to covet honor, I am the most offending soul.
118.     To be, or not to be, that is the question.
119.     Heat not a furnace for your foe so hot that it do singe yourself.
120.     To do a great right does a little wrong.
121.     When words are scarce they are seldom spent in vain.
122.     There's no art to find the mind's construction in the face.
123.     Words, words, mere words, no matter from the heart.

124.     If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men's cottages princes' palaces.
