" "
You common cry of curs! whose breath I hate

Additional quotes by William Shakespeare

"Men of few words are the best men."

(3.2.41)

One fire burns out another's burning,
One pain is lessen'd by another's anguish.

Of all the wonders that I have heard,
It seems to me most strange that men should fear;
Seeing death, a necessary end,
Will come when it will come.
(Act II, Scene 2)
