William Shakespeare (1564-1616)
Poet and Dramatist


Action is eloquence. -William Shakespeare

Have more than thou showest, /
Speak less than thou knowest. -
This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man. -Shakespeare


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

Love all, trust a few. Do wrong to none. --William Shakespeare,

We know what we are, but know not what we may be. -Shakespeare 1564-1616

All the world's a stage, / And the men and women merely players: / They have their exits and their entrances; / And one man in his time plays many parts. -William Shakespeare, poet and dramatist (1564-1616)

Oftentimes excusing of a fault / Doth make the fault the worse by th' excuse. -William Shakespeare, playwright and poet (1564-1616)

Words without thoughts never to heaven go. -William Shakespeare,  (1564-1616)

My library / Was dukedom large enough. -William Shakespeare, poet and dramatist (1564-1616)

The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool. -William Shakespeare, playwright and poet (1564-1616)

The course of true love never did run smooth. -William Shakespeare, playwright and poet (1564-1616)

Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown. -William Shakespeare, playwright and poet (1564-1616)
 

But man, proud man, /
Drest in a little brief authority, /
Most ignorant of what he's most assured, /
His glassy essence, like an angry ape, /
Plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven /
 As make the angels weep.
-William Shakespeare, playwright and poet (1564-1616)
