I give this heavy weight from ...

I give this heavy weight from off my head
And this unwieldy sceptre from my hand,
The pride of kingly sway from out my heart.
With mine own tears I wash away my balm,
With mine own hands I give away my crown,
With mine own tongue deny my sacred state,
With mine own breath release all duty's rites.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

Why, our battalia trebles that...

Why, our battalia trebles that account:
Besides, the king's name is a tower of strength,
Which they upon the adverse faction want.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

Ever note, Lucilius,
When love begins to sicken and decay
It useth an enforced ceremony.
There are no tricks in plain and simple faith;
But hollow men, like horses hot at hand,
Make gallant show and promise of their mettle;
But when they should endure the bloody spur,
They fall their crests, and like deceitful jades
Sink in the trial.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

And what art thou, thou idol C...

And what art thou, thou idol Ceremony?
What kind of god art thou, that suffer'st more
Of mortal griefs than do thy worshippers?

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

O Ceremony, show me but thy wo...

O Ceremony, show me but thy worth?
What is thy soul of adoration?
Art thou aught else but place, degree, and form,
Creating awe and fear in other men?

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

What infinite heart's-ease

What infinite heart's-ease
Must kings neglect that private men enjoy!
And what have kings that privates have not too,
Save ceremony, save general ceremony?

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

Nay, my lords, ceremony was bu...

Nay, my lords, ceremony was but devised at first
To set a gloss on faint deeds, hollow welcomes,
Recanting goodness, sorry ere 'tis shown;
But where there is true friendship, there needs none.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

To feed were best at home;

To feed were best at home;
From thence, the sauce is meat to ceremony:
Meeting were bare without it.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

There is betwixt that smile we...

There is betwixt that smile we would aspire to,
That sweet aspect of princes, and their ruin,
More pangs and fears than wars or women have;
And when he falls, he falls like Lucifer,
Never to hope again.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

His nature is too noble for the world.
He would not flatter Neptune for his trident,
Or Jove for's power to thunder.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

This was the noblest Roman of ...

This was the noblest Roman of them all.
All the conspirators save only he
Did that they did in envy of great Caesar;
He, only in a general honest thought
And common good to all, made one of them.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

Et tu, Brute?--Then fall Caesa...

Et tu, Brute?--Then fall Caesar.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

To say the truth, so Judas kis...

To say the truth, so Judas kissed his master
And cried, 'All hail!' when as he meant all harm.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

Thou know'st, great son,
...

Thou know'st, great son,
The end of war's uncertain, but this certain,
That, if thou conquer Rome, the benefit
Which thou shalt thereby reap is such a name
Whose repetition will be dogged with curses,
Whose chronicle thus writ: 'The man was noble,
But with his last attempt he wiped it out,
Destroyed his country; and his name remains
To th' ensuing age abhorred,' Speak to me son.
Thou h

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

Though those that are betrayed...

Though those that are betrayed
Do feel the treason sharply, yet the traitor
Stands in worse case of woe.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

And then I stole all courtesy ...

And then I stole all courtesy from heaven,
And dressed myself in such humility
That I did pluck allegiance from men's hearts,
Loud shouts and salutations from their mouths
Even in the presence of the crowned king.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

Supposition all our lives shal...

Supposition all our lives shall be stuck full of eyes;
For treason is but trusted like the fox,
Who, ne'er so tame, so cherished and locked up,
Will have a wild trick of his ancestors.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

Some guard these traitors to t...

Some guard these traitors to the block of death,
Treason's true bed and yielder up of breath.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

Know my name is lost,

Know my name is lost,
By treason's tooth bare-gnawn and canker-bit;
Yet am I noble as the adversary
I come to cope.

William Shakespeare 6495 quotes

Treason and murder ever kept t...

Treason and murder ever kept together,
As two yoke-devils sworn to either's purpose,
Working so grossly in a natural cause
That admiration did not whoop at them;
But thou, 'gainst all proportion, didst bring in
Wonder to wait on treason and on murder;
And whatsoever cunning fiend it was
That wrought upon thee so preposterously
Hath got the voice in hell for excellence.
