Authors: Shakespeare - Hamlet Quotes, Famous Hamlet Quotes, Quotations
Be
somewhat scanter of your maiden presence. Hamlet, 1. 3
It
is a nipping and an eager air. Hamlet, 1. 4
But
to my mind, - though I am native here
And to the manner born, - it is a custom
More honoured in the breach than the observance. Hamlet, 1. 4
Angels
and ministers of grace, defend us!
Be thou a spirit of health or goblin damned,
Bring with thee airs from heaven or blasts from hell,
Be thy intents wicked or charitable,
Thou comest in such a questionable shape
That I will speak to thee: I 'll call thee Hamlet,
King, father, royal Dane: O, answer me!
Let me not burst in ignorance, but tell
Why thy canonized bones, hearsed in death,
Have burst their cerements; why the sepulchre,
Wherein we saw thee quietly inurn'd,
Hath oped his ponderous and marble jaws
To cast thee up again. What may this mean,
That thou, dead corse, again in complete steel
Revisit'st thus the glimpses of the moon,
Making night hideous, and we fools of nature
So horridly to shake our disposition
With thoughts beyond the reaches of our souls? Hamlet, 1. 4
I
do not set my life at a pin's fee;
And set my soul, what can it do to that,
Being a thing immortal as itself? Hamlet, 1. 4
Unhand
me, gentlemen.
By heaven, I'll make a ghost of him that lets me! Hamlet, 1. 4
Something
is rotten in the state of Denmark. Hamlet, 1. 4
I
am thy father's spirit;
Doomed for a certain term to walk the night,
And for the day confined to fast in fires,
Till the foul crimes done in my days of nature
Are burnt and purged away. But that I am forbid
To tell the secrets of my prison-house,
I could a tale unfold, whose lightest word
Would harrow up thy soul, freeze thy young blood,
Make thy two eyes, like stars, start from their spheres,
Thy knotted and combined locks to part
And each particular hair to stand an end,
Like quills upon the fretful porpentine:
But this eternal blazon must not be
To ears of flesh and blood. - List, list, O, list! Hamlet, 1. 5
Revenge
his foul and most unnatural murder. Hamlet, 1. 5
