William Shakespeare on Ghosts

← Back to William Shakespeare Profile
“Is this a dagger which I see before me, The handle toward my hand?”
William Shakespeare
“There needs no ghost, my lord, come from the grave. To tell us this.”
William Shakespeare
“A dagger of the mind, a false creation, Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?”
William Shakespeare
“The graves stood tenantless, and the sheeted dead Did squeak and gibber in the Roman streets.”
William Shakespeare
“I can call spirits from the vasty deep. Why, so can I, or so can any man; But will they come when you do call for them?”
William Shakespeare
“What are these, So wither'd, and so wild in their attire; That look not like the inhabitants o' th' earth, And yet are on 't?”
William Shakespeare
“Now it is the time of night, That the graves, all gaping wide, Every one lets forth his sprite, In the church-way paths to glide.”
William Shakespeare
