Shakespeare

Famous quotes containing the word shakespeare:

    Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth
    And delves the parallels in beauty’s brow,
    Feeds on the rarities of nature’s truth,
    And nothing stands but for his scythe to mow:
    And yet to times in hope my verse shall stand,
    Praising thy worth, despite his cruel hand.
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    What’s a joint of mutton or two in a whole Lent?
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Thou art come to answer
    A stony adversary, an inhuman wretch,
    Uncapable of pity, void and empty
    From any dram of mercy.
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
