O' What may man within him hide, though angel on the outward side!

Go to you bosom: Knock there and ask your heart what it doth know.

It will have blood they say, blood will have blood.

I bear a charmed life.

For I can raise no money by vile means.

Men shut their doors against a setting sun.

Come gentlemen, I hope we shall drink down all unkindness.

Exceeds man's might: that dwells with the gods above.

I may neither choose whom I would nor refuse whom I dislike, so is the will of a living daughter curbed by the will of a dead father.

The undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveler returns.

I see that the fashion wears out more apparel than the man.

Praise us as we are tasted, allow us as we prove.

If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches and poor men's cottage princes' palaces.

Our peace shall stand as firm as rocky mountains.

Wisely and slow. They stumble that run fast.

When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions.

How oft the sight of means to do ill deeds makes ill deeds done!

Love is not love that alters when it alteration finds.

Mind your speech a little lest you should mar your fortunes.

We are time's subjects, and time bids be gone.

The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.

He is winding the watch of his wit, by and by it will strike.

To do a great right, do a little wrong.

I shall the effect of this good lesson keeps as watchman to my heart.

O what a goodly outside falsehood hath!

Love to faults is always blind, always is to joy inclined. Lawless winged and unconfined and breaks all chains from every mind.

Poor and content is rich and rich enough.

My pride fell with my fortunes.
