His works have been translated into most languages of the world and are staged in theaters more often than the works of any other playwright in the world.
The works of William Shakespeare are full of profound observations about human nature, love, life and friendship. Almost 5 centuries have passed, but they are still relevant today more than ever.
We have collected 25 bright and deep quotes from the works of the great playwright and poet in order to once again think about the most important thing:
- Not at all a sign of soullessness - silence. Thunders only what is empty inside.
- So sweet is honey that, finally, it is bitter. Too much taste kills the taste.
- We get irritated over trifles when we are offended by something serious.
- Oaths given in a storm are forgotten in calm weather.
- Mother nature is wise, but the son is brainless.
- Where there are few words, they have weight.
- Love flees from those who chase after it, and those who run away, throw themselves on the neck.
- Stupidity and wisdom are as easily seized as contagious diseases. So choose your comrades.
- To catch happiness, you must be able to run.
- Most people prefer stupidity to wisdom, because stupidity makes me laugh, but wisdom makes me sad.
- Men are like April when they are courting and December when they are already married.
- The hope of enjoyment is almost as pleasant as the enjoyment itself.
- Don't get too hot for your enemies, or you'll burn yourself in it..
- The success of a witty word depends more on the ear of the hearer than on the tongue of the speaker.
- What does the name mean? A rose smells like a rose, whether you call it a rose or not.
- Every madness has its own logic.
- You can fall in love with beauty, but love - only the soul.
- A crow smears its wings with mud -
No one will notice anyway
And the swan, despite all the efforts,
Can’t wash a stain from whiteness ... - One look can kill love, one look can resurrect it.
- A coward dies at every danger that threatens him, but death overtakes a brave man only once..
- The poor crushed insect suffers just like the dying giant.
- Three rules for success: know more than the rest; work harder than others; expect less than the rest.
- There is nothing bad or good in this world. There is only our attitude to something.
- The best thing is a straight and simple spoken word.
- You are trying so hard to judge the sins of others - start with your own and you won’t get to strangers.
