What is the difference between To thy own self be true vs to thine own self be true?

Grammar. "Thine" is used before a word beginning with a vowel (like the difference between "a" and "an"). Shakespeare wrote "thine," of course. (Elizabethan grammar was a flexible thing, but not in this case.)

What were most of shakespeare's sonnets about?

The transience of life, love, and quite a few are about carrying on one's beauty by having a child. For example, Sonnet 10 (one of my favourites) ends with the rhyming couplet 'Make thee another self, for love of me; That beauty still may live in thine or thee.'


Words credited to William Shakespeare?

Are you looking for phrases or just individual words? Phrases include: To thine own self be true ..with bated breath There is something rotten in the state of Denmark. To be or not to be-that is the question. Neither a borrower or a lender be Sweets for the sweet Not a mouse stirring ..a foregone conclusion I am sure there is more, that's all I can think of at the moment.


What is the title of the poem to thine own self be true?

Technically, it is not a poem; it is a soliloquy from Hamlet (one of several). Yet here, Laertes! Aboard, aboard for shame! The wind sits in the shoulder of your sail, And you are stay'd for. There ... my blessing with thee! And these few precepts in thy memory Look thou character. Give thy thoughts no tongue, Nor any unproportion'd thought his act. Be thou familiar, but by no means vulgar. Those friends thou hast, and their adoption tried, Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel; But do not dull thy palm with entertainment Of each new-hatch'd, unfledg'd comrade. Beware Of entrance to a quarrel but, being in, Bear't that th' opposed may beware of thee. Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice; Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgement. Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, But not express'd in fancy; rich, not gaudy; For the apparel oft proclaims the man; And they in France of the best rank and station Are of a most select and generous chief in that. Neither a borrower, nor a lender be; For loan oft loses both itself and friend, And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry. This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man. Farewell; my blessing season this in thee!
