Yes, faith; it is my cousin's duty to make curtsy and say 'Father, as it please you.' But yet for all that, cousin, let him be a handsome fellow, or else make another curtsy and say 'Father, as it please me. William Shakespeare

Why, as men do a-land; the great ones eat up thelittle ones: I can compare our rich misers tonothing so fitly as to a whale; a' plays andtumbles, driving the poor fry before him, and atlast devours them all at a mouthful: William Shakespeare

Therefore when he sees reason of fears, as we do, his fears, out of doubt, be of the same relish as ours are: yet, in reason, no man should possess him with... William Shakespeare

Here will I stand till Caesar pass along, And as a suitor will I give him this. My heart laments the virtue cannot live. Out of the teeth of emulation. If thou read this, O Caesar, thou mayest live; If not, the fates with traitors do contrive. William Shakespeare
