For if you were by my unkindness shaken
As I by yours, y'have passed a hell of time,
And I, a tyrant, have no leisure taken
To weigh how once I suffered in your crime.
(Sonnet 120: That You Were Once Unkind Befriends Me Now)
More Quotes from William Shakespeare:
It ascends me into the brain; dries me there allthe foolish and dull and crudy vapours which environ it; makes it
apprehensive, quick, forgetive, full of nimble, fiery, and
delectable shapes; which delivered o'er to the voice, the tongue,
which is the birth, becomes excellent wit.
William Shakespeare
I thought my heart had been wounded with the claws of a lion.
William Shakespeare
So we grow together, Like to a double cherry, seeming parted, But yet an union in partition Two lovely berries moulded on one stem So, with two seeming bodies, but one heart.
William Shakespeare
I do wander everywhere,
Swifter than the moon's sphere;
And I serve the Fairy Queen,
To dew her orbs upon the green;
The cowslips tall her pensioners be;
In their gold coats spots you see;
Those be rubies, fairy favours;
In those freckles live their savours;
I must go seek some dewdrops here,
And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear.
William Shakespeare
I never knew so young a body with so old a head.
William Shakespeare
And let my sovereign, virtuous Henry,
Command my eldest son, nay, all my sons,
As pledges of my fealty and love.
William Shakespeare
