Shakespeare Quotes

If there is a streak of ham anywhere in an actor, Shakespeare will bring it out Picture Quote #1

Seeing Shakespeare in the Park, for me, it's just this side of feeling like you've witnessed some kind of magic. It's this spell that you're under, to be part of that! Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare tells the same stories over and over in so many guises that it takes a long time before you notice Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare very rarely makes the least attempt to surprise by his catastrophes. They are felt to be inevitable, though the precise way in which they will be brought about is not, of course, foreseen Picture Quote #1

To realize life in the abstract as noble or beautiful or humane, to set it forth so with radiance upon it, that is civilization in the arts. Shakespeare is the chief modern example of this supreme faculty of mankind Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare brings us to know ourselves. Dante, with his dissection of all others, bids us to know one another Picture Quote #1

There is a time to study a map passionately, obsessively. To see where you’ve gone, where others have gone before you. To commit to memory every obstacle, every danger. Shakespeare had a term for this obsession: mappery. But there is a time, too, when you say, come dragons. I challenge you to find me Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare wrote about love. I write about love. Shakespeare wrote about gang warfare, family feuds and revenge. I write about all the same things Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare often writes so ill that you hesitate to believe he could ever write supremely well; or, if this way of putting it seem indecorous and abominable, he very often writes so well that you are loth to believe he could ever have written thus extremely ill Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare never had six lines together without a fault. Perhaps you may find seven, but this does not refute my general assertion Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare knew the human mind, and its most minute and intimate workings, and he never introduces a word, or a thought, in vain or out of place; if we do not understand him, it is our own fault Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare teaches you how to act. You come out of this process as a better actor. It’s just the nature of the words he writes Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare again. Once you let him into your head, he takes up tenancy and will not leave Picture Quote #1

Each writer is born with a repertory company in his head. Shakespeare has perhaps 20 players... I have 10 or so, and thats a lot. As you get older, you become more skillful at casting them Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare said that art is a mirror held up to nature. And that’s what it is. The nature is your nature, and all of these wonderful poetic images of mythology are referring to something in you. When your mind is trapped by the image out there so that you never make the reference to yourself, you have misread the image Picture Quote #1

To me, shakespeare uses the supernatural elements to reveal his character’s inner desires and fears Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare is a good raft whereon to float securely down the stream of time; fasten yourself to that and your immortality is safe Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare is above all writers, at least above all modern writers, the poet of nature; the poet that holds up to his readers a faithful mirror of manners and of life Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare... For gain not glory, winged his roving flight, and grew immortal in his own despite Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare says, we are creatures that look before and after; the more surprising that we do not look around a little, and see what is passing under our very eyes Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare was naturally learned; he needed not the spectacles of the books to read nature; he looked inward, and found her there Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare is dangerous to young poets; they cannot but reproduce him, while they fancy that they produce themselves Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare is a great psychologist, and whatever can be known of the heart of man may be found in his plays Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare is one of the best means of culture the world possesses. Whoever is at home in his pages is at home everywhere Picture Quote #1

What Shakespeare and the Greeks were able to do was radically question what it meant to be a human being Picture Quote #1

I’ve always wanted to give ‘Hamlet’ a shot. It’s the big one, you know. I haven’t done Shakespeare professionally, so I think it would be terrifying Picture Quote #1

It was a wonderful experience to live the life for a year; to spend all day doing Shakespeare and then do a play in the evening Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare gives you these clues - these little pieces of gold dust, I call them. They tell you so much about the story, the character, the drive, the intentions. It’s like a gift Picture Quote #1

Juilliard is wonderful in that they don’t pick just one way of working. They give you a palette. There is method acting. There is a lot of attention to Shakespeare and verse Picture Quote #1

I studied Shakespeare all through high school. Both of my parents teach English and history, so it has always been around my experience as a young man Picture Quote #1
