Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Parting is such sweet sorrow — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

My rage is gone,
And I am struck with sorrow. Take him up.
Help, three o' th' chiefest soldiers; I'll be one.
Beat thou the drum, that it speaks mournfully,
Trail your steel spikes. Though in this city he
Hath widowed and unchilded many a one,
Which to this hour bewail the injury,
Yet he shall have a noble memory.
Assist. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

I'll read enough
When I do see the very book indeed
Where all my sins are writ, and that's myself.
Give me that glass and therein will I read.
No deeper wrinkles yet? Hath sorrow struck
So many blows upon this face of mine
And made no deeper wounds?
O flattering glass,
Like to my followers in prosperity
Thou dost beguile me! — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

My plenteous joys, Wanton in fulness, seek to hide themselves In drops of sorrow. Sons, kinsmen, thanes, And you whose places are the nearest, know We will establish our estate upon Our eldest, Malcolm, whom we name hereafter The Prince of Cumberland; which honour must Not unaccompanied invest him only, But signs of nobleness, like stars, shall shine On all deservers. From hence to Inverness, — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Then hate me when thou wilt; if ever, now;
Now, while the world is bent my deeds to cross,
Join with the spite of fortune, make me bow,
And do not drop in for an after-loss:
Ah, do not, when my heart hath 'scoped this sorrow,
Come in the rearward of a conquer'd woe;
Give not a windy night a rainy morrow,
To linger out a purposed overthrow.
If thou wilt leave me, do not leave me last,
When other petty griefs have done their spite
But in the onset come; so shall I taste
At first the very worst of fortune's might,
And other strains of woe, which now seem woe,
Compared with loss of thee will not seem so. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

No deeper wrinkles yet? Hath sorrow struck So many blows upon this face of mine And made no deeper wounds? — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By Samuel Johnson

Shakespeare's plays are not in the rigorous and critical sense either tragedies or comedies, but compositions of a distinct kind; exhibiting the real state of sublunary nature, which partakes of good and evil, joy and sorrow, mingled with endless variety of proportion and innumerable modes of combination; and expressing the course of the world, in which the loss of one is the gain of another; in which, at the same time, the reveller is hasting to his wine, and the mourner burying his friend; in which the malignity of one is sometimes defeated by the frolick of another; and many mischiefs and many benefits are done and hindered without design. — Samuel Johnson

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

And sleep, that sometime shuts up sorrow's eye, Steal me awhile from mine own company. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

For gnarling sorrow hath less power to bite the man that mocks at it and sets it light. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Neither my place, nor aught I heard of business,
Hath raised me from my bed; nor doth the general care
Take hold on me; for my particular grief
Is of so floodgate and o'erbearing nature
That it engluts and swallows other sorrows,
And it is still itself. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

I will instruct my sorrows to be proud; for grief is proud, and makes his owner stoop. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

I pray thee, cease thy counsel,
Which falls into mine ears as profitless
As water in a sieve: give not me counsel;
Nor let no comforter delight mine ear
But such a one whose wrongs do suit with mine:
... for, brother, men
Can counsel and speak comfort to that grief Which they themselves not feel; but, tasting it,
Their counsel turns to passion, which before
Would give preceptial medicine to rage,
Fetter strong madness in a silken thread,
Charm ache with air and agony with words.
No, no; 'tis all men's office to speak patience
To those that wring under the load of sorrow,
But no man's virtue nor sufficiency
To be so moral when he shall endure
The like himself. Therefore give me no counsel:
My griefs cry louder than advertisement. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

If there were a sympathy in choice,
War, death, or sickness, did lay siege to it,
Making it momentary as a sound,
Swift as a shadow, short as any dream,
Brief as the lightning in the collied night
That, in a spleen, unfolds both heaven and earth,
And ere a man hath power to say 'Behold!'
The jaws of darkness do devour it up;
So quick bright things come to confusion. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Wisely weigh our sorrow with our comfort. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Canst thou not minister to a mind diseased, Pluck from the memory a rooted sorrow, Raze out the written troubles of the brain — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

To be now a sensible man, by and by a fool, and presently a
beast! — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

No matter where; of comfort no man speak:
Let's talk of graves, of worms, and epitaphs;
Make dust our paper and with rainy eyes
Write sorrow on the bosom of the earth — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By Samuel Johnson

Shakespeare has united the powers of exciting laughter and sorrow not only in one mind, but in one composition. — Samuel Johnson

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

That you were once unkind befriends me now, And for that sorrow, which I then did feel, Needs must I under my transgression bow, Unless my nerves were brass or hammered steel ... — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Amen, amen! but come what sorrow can,
It cannot countervail the exchange of joy
That one short minute gives me in her sight:
Do thou but close our hands with holy words,
Then love-devouring death do what he dare;
It is enough I may but call her mine. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Each present joy or sorrow seems the chief. — William Shakespeare

T is better to be lowly born, And range with humble livers in content, Than to be perked up in a glistering grief, And wear a golden sorrow. King Henry VIII. II.3 — William Shakespeare

Like a red morn that ever yet betokened,
Wreck to the seaman, tempest to the field,
Sorrow to the shepherds, woe unto the birds,
Gusts and foul flaws to herdmen and to herds. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Of comfort no man speak: Let's talk of graves, of worms, and epitaphs; Make dust our paper, and with rainy eyes Write sorrow on the bosom of the earth. Let's choose executors and talk of wills; And yet not so - for what can we bequeath Save our deposed bodies to the ground? — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Reflection is the business of man; a sense of his state is his first duty: but who remembereth himself in joy? Is it not in mercy then that sorrow is allotted unto us? — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Be wise as thou art cruel, do not press My tongue-tied patience with too much disdain: Lest sorrow lend me words and words express, The manner of my pity-wanting pain ... — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Nor can thy shame give physic to my grief;
Though thou repent, yet I have still the loss:
The offender's sorrow lends but weak relief
To him that bears the strong offence's cross. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Shorten my days thou canst with sullen sorrow,
And pluck nights from me, but not lend a morrow;
Thou canst help time to furrow me with age,
But stop no wrinkle in his pilgrimage. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Macbeth: How does your patient, doctor?
Doctor: Not so sick, my lord, as she is troubled with thick-coming fancies that keep her from rest.
Macbeth: Cure her of that! Canst thou not minister to a mind diseased, pluck from the memory a rooted sorrow, raze out the written troubles of the brain, and with some sweet oblivious antidote cleanse the stuffed bosom of that perilous stuff which weighs upon her heart.
Doctor: Therein the patient must minister to himself. — William Shakespeare

Which the false man does easy. — William Shakespeare

Bad is the trade that must play fool to sorrow,
Ang'ring itself and others. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

He that is thy friend indeed,
He will help thee in thy need:
If thou sorrow, he will weep;
If thou wake, he cannot sleep:
Thus of every grief in heart
He with thee doth bear a part.
These are certain signs to know
Faithful friend from flattering foe. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

An oven that is stopp'd, or river stay'd,
Burneth more hotly, swelleth with more rage:

But when the heart's attorney once is mute,
The client breaks, as desperate in his suit. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Come and take choice of all my library and so beguile thy sorrow. — William Shakespeare

It hath no end. — William Shakespeare

Too much of water hast thou, poor Ophelia,
And therefore I forbid my tears. — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

Each substance of grief hath twenty shadows, which shows like grief itself, but is not so; or sorrow's eye, glazed with blinding tears, divides one thing entire to many objects: like perspectives which, rightly gaz'd upon, show nothing but confusion: — William Shakespeare

Shakespeare Sorrow Quotes By William Shakespeare

O, who can hold a fire in his hand
By thinking on the frosty Caucasus?
Or cloy the hungry edge of appetite
By bare imagination of a feast?
Or wallow naked in December snow
By thinking on fantastic summer's heat?
O, no! the apprehension of the good
Gives but the greater feeling to the worse:
Fell sorrow's tooth doth never rankle more
Than when he bites, but lanceth not the sore. — William Shakespeare
