All WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE Quotes about “Perfection”

“But no perfection is so absolute, That some impurity doth not pollute.”
“To die, is to be banish'd from myself; And Silvia is myself: banish'd from her, Is self from self: a deadly banishment! What light is light, if Silvia be not seen? What joy is joy, if Silvia be not by? Unless it be to think that she is by, And feed upon the shadow of perfection. Except I be by Silvia in the night, There is no music in the nightingale; Unless I look on Silvia in the day, There is no day for me to look upon; She is my essence, and I leave to be, If I be not by her fair influence Foster'd, illumin'd, cherish'd, kept alive.”

“How many things by season seasoned are To their right praise and true perfection!”
“The crow doth sing as sweetly as the lark When neither is attended; and I think The nightingale, if she should sing by day When every goose is cackling, would be thought No better a musician than the wren. How many thing by season seasoned are To their right praise and true perfection!”
“It is the witness still of excellency to put a strange face on his own perfection.”
“I would with such perfection govern, sir, T'excel the golden age.”
