Where joy most revels, grief doth most lament;
Grief joys, joy grieves, on slender accident.
(The Tragedy Of Hamlet, Prince Of Denmark)
More Quotes from William Shakespeare:
If this be so, the gods do mean to strike meTo death with mortal joy.
William Shakespeare
Self-love, my liege, is not so vile a sin As self-neglecting.
William Shakespeare
I grant, sweet love, that I did love a lady;
But she is dead.
William Shakespeare
Our love was new, and then but in the spring
When I was wont to greet it with my lays,
As Philomel in summer's front doth sing,
And stops her pipe in growth of riper days-
Not that the summer is less pleasant now
Than when her mournful hymns did hush the night,
But that wild music burthens every bough,
And sweets grown common lose their dear delight.
William Shakespeare
Faith, I must; she'll rail i' the street else.
William Shakespeare
She weeps, and says her Henry is depos'd:
He smiles, and says his Edward is install'd;
That she, poor wretch, for grief can speak no more;
Whiles Warwick tells his title, smooths the wrong,
Inferreth arguments of mighty strength,
And in conclusion wins the King from her
With promise of his sister, and what else,
To strengthen and support King Edward's place.
William Shakespeare
