The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.
A man loves the meat in his youth that he cannot endure in his age.
'Tis best to weigh the enemy more mighty than he seems.
I hold the world but as the world, Gratiano; A stage where every man must play a part, And mine is a sad one.
Things done well and with a care, exempt themselves from fear.
So foul and fair a day I have not seen.
There was never yet fair woman but she made mouths in a glass.
I like not fair terms and a villain's mind.
The love of heaven makes one heavenly.
'Tis one thing to be tempted, another thing to fall.
Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall.
In a false quarrel there is no true valor.
O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!
Wisely, and slow. They stumble that run fast.
It is a wise father that knows his own child.
Children wish fathers looked but with their eyes; fathers that children with their judgment looked; and either may be wrong.
'Tis not enough to help the feeble up, but to support them after.
My pride fell with my fortunes.
Nature hath framed strange fellows in her time.
Though she be but little, she is fierce.
