What is your will, sir, that you sent for me?

Where is your sister, and Hortensios wife?

timon-of-athens-act-4-scene-3.json-line-93

I don't eat what I hate.

Dost hate a medlar?

timon-of-athens-act-4-scene-3.json-line-84

Gold is useless here.

The best and truest;For here it sleeps, and does no hired harm.

richard-iii-act-3-scene-1.json-line-26

I said that without written records, fame lives long. 

That Julius Caesar was a famous man. With what his valor did enrich his wit, His wit set down to make his valor live. Death makes no conquest of this conqueror, For now he lives in fame, though not in life. Ill tell you what, my cousin Buckingham

othello-act-1-scene-1.json-line-9

Call up Desdemona's father.  Wake him up. We'll slander Othello in the streets, and ruin his happiness by getting his wife's family all riled up. And even if he's in a paradise right now, we'll fill it with flies. He may still be happy, but we'll douse him in so much irritation that his happiness will lose some of its luster.

Here is her fathers house, Ill call aloud.

richard-ii-act-1-scene-1.json-line-12

What crime do you accuse Mowbray of, cousin? It must be very bad, if it can cause us to think any ill of him.

Look, what I speak, my life shall prove it true; That Mowbray hath received eight thousand nobles In name of lendings for your highness' soldiers, The which he hath detain'd for lewd employments, Like a false traitor and injurious villain. Besides I say and will in battle prove, Or here or elsewhere to the furthest verge That ever was survey'd by English eye, That all the treasons for these eighteen years Complotted and contrived in this land Fetch from false Mowbray their first head and spring. Further I say and further will maintain Upon his bad life to make all this good, That he did plot the Duke of Gloucester's death, Suggest his soon-believing adversaries, And consequently, like a traitor coward, Sluiced out his innocent soul through streams of blood: Which blood, like sacrificing Abel's, cries, Even from the tongueless caverns of the earth, To me for justice and rough chastisement; And, by the glorious worth of my descent, This arm shall do it, or this life be spent.

the-taming-of-the-shrew-act-4-scene-2.json-line-9

Let me reveal myself. I am not Litio, and not a musician either. I refuse to continue with this disguise for the sake of a woman who would choose a low-class scoundrel over a gentleman like me. Know, sir, that I am called Hortensio.

[as LUCENTIO] Signior Hortensio, I have often heard Of your entire affection to Bianca, And since mine eyes are witness of her lightness, I will with you, if you be so contented, Forswear Bianca and her love for ever.

othello-act-2-scene-3.json-line-0

Good Michael, take care of the guard duties tonight. Let's show some self-restraint and not celebrate to the point of excess.

Iago hath direction what to do, But notwithstanding with my personal eyeWill I look to t.

timon-of-athens-act-2-scene-2.json-line-5

I just want to get paid!

I fear it.

the-tempest-act-3-scene-3.json-line-11

If I described this back in Naples, would they believe me? Would they believe it if I told them that I saw native islanders such as thesebecause they must certainly be natives of the islandwho despite their unnatural shape have more grace and better manners than you can find among manyactually, almost anyhuman beings?

[aside] Honest lord,Thou hast said well, for some of you there presentAre worse than devils.

richard-iii-act-4-scene-4.json-line-132

Yes, if your memories of yourself only hurt you.

Yet thou didst kill my children.

titus-andronicus-act-4-scene-4.json-line-1

My gracious lord, my lovely Saturnine, lord of my life, commander of my thoughts: calm yourself. Remember that Titus is old; his grief for his sons has pierced him deeply and scarred his heart. Comfort him in his distress instead of prosecuting the greatest or least member of his family for this.  [To herself] Well, it's clever to pretend to defend him like this. But Titus, I've got you, and I've spilled your life-blood. if Aaron's plan goes smoothly, then we're almost there. 

How now, good fellow! wouldst thou speak with us?

pericles-act-4-scene-2.json-line-35

Are you a woman?

What would you have me be, an I be not a woman?

othello-act-4-scene-3.json-line-22

I know a lady in Venice who would have walked barefoot to Palestine just to touch his lower lip.

( singing) The poor soul sat sighing by a sycamore tree, Sing all a green willow. Her hand on her bosom, her head on her knee, Sing willow, willow, willow. The fresh streams ran by her, and murmured her moans, Sing willow, willow, willow. Her salt tears fell from her, and softened the stones Sing willow, willow, willow Lay by these Willow, willow Prithee, hie thee, hell come anon Sing all a green willow must be my garland. Let nobody blame him, his scorn I approve Nay, thats not nextHark! Who is t that knocks?

richard-iii-act-2-scene-2.json-line-30

Sister, let yourself be comforted. All of us have reason to mourn the dimming of the king, our shining star, but none of us can help anything by wailing.

God bless thee, and put meekness in thy breast,Love, charity, obedience, and true duty.

twelfth-night-act-1-scene-3.json-line-7

Yes, him.

Hes as tall a man as anys in Illyria.

the-winters-tale-act-1-scene-2.json-line-78

Just stop there, and go to hell! Do you think I'm so crazy and confused that I would make this up? Do you think I would destroy my own reputation and my marriage, just to welcome all the pain and difficulty that will come of that? Do you really think I would just bastardize my son (who I think is mine and who I love as my own) without a good reason? Would I do that? Would any man have the guts to do that?

I must believe you, sir: I do; and will fetch off Bohemia for't; Provided that, when he's removed, your highness Will take again your queen as yours at first, Even for your son's sake; and thereby for sealing The injury of tongues in courts and kingdoms Known and allied to yours.

the-tempest-act-1-scene-2.json-line-61

Before the time of our deal is up? Stop right there!

I prithee, Remember I have done thee worthy service, Told thee no lies, made thee no mistakings, served Without or grudge or grumblings. Thou didst promise To bate me a full year.

timon-of-athens-act-3-scene-6.json-line-51

Have you seen my hat?

Here 'tis.

timon-of-athens-act-2-scene-2.json-line-81

But sir, you would have given the entire world in one breath. Your holdings shrank so quickly!

You tell me true.

the-winters-tale-act-1-scene-1.json-line-0

Camillo, if, in your duties as a servant to the king, you ever happen to visit Bohemia (as I'm visiting Sicily now), you'll see how different our two countries are.

I think, this coming summer, the King of Siciliameans to pay Bohemia the visitation which he justly owes him.

romeo-and-juliet-act-2-scene-2.json-line-51

And Ill remain here, even if you keep forgetting. Ill forget that I have any other home but here.

Tis almost morning. I would have thee gone. And yet no further than a wantons bird, That lets it hop a little from his hand Like a poor prisoner in his twisted gyves, And with a silken thread plucks it back again, So loving-jealous of his liberty.

the-taming-of-the-shrew-act-4-scene-2.json-line-40

Yes, sir, I've often been to PisaPisa, famous for its serious citizens.

[as LUCENTIO] Among them know you one Vincentio?

the-taming-of-the-shrew-act-4-scene-5.json-line-10

Then God be blessed, it's the blessed sun. But it's not the sun when you say it isn't, and the moon changes with your mind. Whatever you name it, that's what the thing is, and so it will always be for Katherine.

Petruchio, go thy ways; the field is won.

othello-act-3-scene-3.json-line-151

No, be smart. We still haven't seen anything actually happen. She may still turn out to be honest. Just tell me this: have you occasionally seen a handkerchief decorated with strawberries in your wife's hand? 

I gave her such a one, twas my first gift.

timon-of-athens-act-4-scene-3.json-line-158

The gods know that there has never been an assistant racked with sadness for his lord the way I am looking at you.

What, dost thou weep? Come nearer. Then I love thee, Because thou art a woman, and disclaim'st Flinty mankind; whose eyes do never give But thorough lust and laughter. Pity's sleeping: Strange times, that weep with laughing, not with weeping!

richard-iii-act-2-scene-1.json-line-30

Then quickly say what it is you want.

The forfeit, sovereign, of my servants life,Who slew today a riotous gentlemanLately attendant on the duke of Norfolk.

romeo-and-juliet-act-2-scene-1.json-line-4

No, Ill summon him as I would a spirit. Romeo! Humors! Madman! Passion! Lover! Appear to me in the form of a sigh. Speak just a single rhyme, and Ill be satisfied. Cry out, Ah me! Say love and dove. Say one pretty word to my good gossiping friend Venus. Say the nickname of her blind son and heir, Cupid, who shot arrows so accurately and made King Cophetua fall in love with a beggar maid.Romeo doesnt hear me, stir, or move. The little monkey is dead, so I must conjure him to appear. By Rosalines bright eyes, by her high forehead and her red lips, by her fine feet, straight legs, and trembling thighs, and by parts of her that lie next to her thighs, I summon you to appear before us in your actual form.

An if he hear thee, thou wilt anger him.

timon-of-athens-act-1-scene-1.json-line-46

You have a servant named Lucilius.

I have so: what of him?

the-taming-of-the-shrew-act-2-scene-1.json-line-0

Good sister, don't wrong both me and yourself by turning me into a slave. I won't stand for that. But if it's my jewelry and clothes you wantuntie my hands and I'll pull them off myself, yes, everything down to my underwear. Or I'll do anything else you command me to do, for I know that it is my duty is to obey my elders.

Of all thy suitors here I charge thee tellWhom thou lovest best. See thou dissemble not.

othello-act-4-scene-1.json-line-23

Lie with her? Lie on her? To lie on someone is to tell lies about that person! To lie with herthat's obscene. First the handkerchief, and now this confession! Should he confess first and then be executed? No, I'll kill him first and let him confess later. I am trembling with anger, and nature wouldn't make my body do this without some reason. It must be more than a rumor if it's making me tremble like this. Ugh! Noses, ears, and lips. Could this be true? That he would admit to itand the handkerchief! Oh, devil!

Work on, My medicine, work! Thus credulous fools are caught, And many worthy and chaste dames even thus, All guiltless, meet reproach. What, ho! My lord! My lord, I say! Othello!

timon-of-athens-act-5-scene-4.json-line-4

These walls of ours were not built by the people who insulted you, nor were they people that deserve their work to fall for the faults of others.

Nor are they living Who were the motives that you first went out; Shame that they wanted cunning, in excess Hath broke their hearts. March, noble lord, Into our city with thy banners spread: By decimation, and a tithed death If thy revenges hunger for that food Which nature loathestake thou the destined tenth, And by the hazard of the spotted die Let die the spotted.

the-taming-of-the-shrew-act-5-scene-2.json-line-8

He who is dizzy thinks the world spins round.

Roundly replied.

pericles-act-2-scene-3.json-line-3

Call it whatever you want; the day is yours. And I hope no one here is jealous of you. Some artists are good, but according to the standards of art, some are excellent; you're clearly the best that art has to offer. [To THAISA] Come, daughter, queen of the feast (since that's what you are), take your place. Direct everyone to do what they're supposed to. [He seats THAISA at the high table]

We are honour'd much by good Simonides.

timon-of-athens-act-2-scene-2.json-line-93

[To FLAVIUS] You go to the senators. I deserve an audience with them. Ask them to send me a thousand talents.

I have been bold For that I knew it the most general way To them to use your signet and your name; But they do shake their heads, and I am here No richer in return.

twelfth-night-act-4-scene-1.json-line-12

No, leave him be. I'll get him in a different way. I'll sue him for assault and battery, if there's any justice and law in Illyria. I struck him first, but that shouldn't matter.

[To SIR TOBY BELCH] Let go thy hand.

richard-iii-act-1-scene-4.json-line-86

Why, that's what he didand now you'll be released from the prison of earth, to be free among the joys of heaven.

Make peace with God, for you must die, my lord.

richard-iii-act-4-scene-4.json-line-138

Give her my true love's kiss. And so, farewell.

Relenting fool and shallow, changing woman!

twelfth-night-act-1-scene-5.json-line-91

It only concerns you. I'm not bringing a declaration of war or a demand for praise. I'm only bringing you an olive branch. My words are full of peace.

Yet you began rudely. What are you? What would you?

romeo-and-juliet-act-1-scene-2.json-line-9

For treating your injured shin.

Why Romeo, art thou mad?

twelfth-night-act-2-scene-5.json-line-66

[Whispering] Yes, or else I'll beat him with a club and make him yell "O!"

And then I comes behind.

the-tempest-act-3-scene-2.json-line-8

Monster, if you want to be a good monster, please say something.

How does thy honor? Let me lick thy shoe. [indicates TRINCULO] Ill not serve him. Hes not valiant.

richard-iii-act-4-scene-5.json-line-0

Sir Christopher, bring this message to Richmond for me: my son George Stanley is locked up in the deadly boar's pen. If I revolt, off goes young George's head. My fear of that happening prevents me from helping right now. So go quickly, and give my regards to your lord. Also say that Queen Elizabeth has readily agreed that Richmond should marry her daughter Elizabeth. But tell me, where is princely Richmond now?

At Pembroke, or at Ha'rfordwest in Wales.

pericles-act-1-scene-4.json-line-4

Tarsus, which I rule, was once wealthy. We had everything we wanted: the streets were strewn with riches, we built towers up to the skies, and every visitor who came here was amazed. Our men and women wore fine clothes and jewelry; they were like mirrors to each other's own riches. They had more than enough food on their tables. No one was poor. We were proud; we couldn't imagine needing help from anyone.

O, 'tis too true.

the-winters-tale-act-2-scene-1.json-line-27

Is this a joke?

Bear the boy hence; he shall not come about her;Away with him! and let her sport herselfWith that she's big with; for 'tis PolixenesHas made thee swell thus.

the-tempest-act-1-scene-2.json-line-89

A pretty spirit! My clever Ariel, listen closely. [He whispers to ARIEL]

My lord it shall be done.

romeo-and-juliet-act-4-scene-4.json-line-10

I can find the logs without bothering Peter.

Mass, and well said! A merry whoreson, ha! Thou shalt be loggerhead. Good faith, 'tis day. The County will be here with music straight, For so he said he would.

the-taming-of-the-shrew-act-4-scene-3.json-line-68

Villain, not on your life! Take off my mistress's gown for your master's use!

Why, sir, whats your conceit in that?

richard-ii-act-1-scene-1.json-line-26

Cousin, put down your gage. Don't you start as well

O, God defend my soul from such deep sin! Shall I seem crest-fall'n in my father's sight? Or with pale beggar-fear impeach my height Before this out-dared dastard? Ere my tongue Shall wound my honour with such feeble wrong, Or sound so base a parle, my teeth shall tear The slavish motive of recanting fear, And spit it bleeding in his high disgrace, Where shame doth harbour, even in Mowbray's face.

the-winters-tale-act-3-scene-2.json-line-21

Have you read the truth?

Ay, my lord; even soAs it is here set down.

twelfth-night-act-5-scene-1.json-line-0

Now, if you're really my friend, let me see his letter.

Good Master Fabian, grant me another request.

richard-ii-act-3-scene-3.json-line-1

The news is very favorable and good, my lord: Richard is hiding not far from here.

It would beseem the Lord Northumberland To say 'King Richard': alack the heavy day When such a sacred king should hide his head.

othello-act-1-scene-3.json-line-57

You must depart tonight.

With all my heart.

the-taming-of-the-shrew-act-5-scene-1.json-line-49

Away with this old fool! Take him to jail!

Thus strangers may be haled and abused.O monstrous villain!

othello-act-4-scene-3.json-line-26

It might, or it might not.

I have heard it said so. Oh, these men, these men! Dost thou in conscience thinktell me, Emilia That there be women do abuse their husbands In such gross kind?

othello-act-4-scene-2.json-line-27

Ah, Desdemona, go away, away, away!

Alas the heavy day, why do you weep? Am I the motive of these tears, my lord? If haply you my father do suspect An instrument of this your calling back, Lay not your blame on me. If you have lost him, Why, I have lost him too.

timon-of-athens-act-5-scene-4.json-line-5

The people who banished you are no longer living. Their shame at their actions broke their hearts. March into our city with your banners, Alcibiades, and if in an unnatural hunger for revenge you'd like to kill one tenth of the entire city, let those unfortunate enough to have gotten such a bad turn of the dice die for all the rest. 

All have not offended; For those that were, it is not square to take On those that are, revenges: crimes, like lands, Are not inherited. Then, dear countryman, Bring in thy ranks, but leave without thy rage: Spare thy Athenian cradle and those kin Which in the bluster of thy wrath must fall With those that have offended: like a shepherd, Approach the fold and cull the infected forth, But kill not all together.

pericles-act-4-scene-1.json-line-17

According to my nurse, my father wasn't afraid. He just called out to the sailors, "Good seamen!" and helped them, pulling the ropes with his own hands, and holding onto the mast to ride out the waves that almost broke the ship.

When was this?

pericles-act-1-scene-1.json-line-14

You're trying to hide your evil with a show of hospitality, but it's hypocrisy; it only looks good from the outside! If I'd really gotten the answer wrong, then that would mean you weren't dirtying your soul by committing disgusting incest. But now, by sleeping with your daughter, you're both father and son, acting more like a husband than a father . . . and she's filling the role her mother should, taking her mother's place in your bed. They're both like snakes who eat pretty flowers but produce deadly poison.Goodbye, Antioch! I'm smart enough to know that a guy who's comfortable doing one evil thing won't hesitate to do another one if it'll keep him from being found out. One sin leads to another; murder is as close to lust as fire is to smoke. If I stick around, I'll be poisoned, or accused of treason, anything to keep me from exposing him. So, to save myself and not expose him, I'll leave here and escape the danger I'm afraid of.

He hath found the meaning, for which we mean To have his head. He must not live to trumpet forth my infamy, Nor tell the world Antiochus doth sin In such a loathed manner; And therefore instantly this prince must die: For by his fall my honour must keep high. Who attends us there?

othello-act-3-scene-3.json-line-116

What will you do with it? Why have you been so eager for me to steal it?

Why, what is that to you?

the-winters-tale-act-4-scene-4.json-line-130

I can't speak; I can't think or wrap my head around what I know now. [To FLORIZEL] Sir, you've ruined an eighty-three-year-old man who only wanted to die in peace on the same bed where his father passed away, and to be buried near him. Now some executioner will bury me, alone.[To PERDITA] How dare you continue to play around with him, knowing he was the prince? Ruined! Ruined! If I die within the hour, I'll be glad to be out of my misery.

Why look you so upon me? I am but sorry, not afeard; delay'd, But nothing alter'd: what I was, I am; More straining on for plucking back, not following My leash unwillingly.

richard-iii-act-3-scene-7.json-line-33

Don't refuse this love we offer you, mighty lord.

O, make them joyful. Grant their lawful suit.

the-winters-tale-act-4-scene-4.json-line-219

What about the bag? What's in the bag? And why the box?

Sir, there lies such secrets in this fardel and box,which none must know but the king; and which heshall know within this hour, if I may come to thespeech of him.

romeo-and-juliet-act-1-scene-5.json-line-49

Go ask him for his name.

If he be married.My grave is like to be my wedding bed.

the-taming-of-the-shrew-act-4-scene-3.json-line-7

It's a dish I love to eat.

Ay, but the mustard is too hot a little.

the-taming-of-the-shrew-act-4-scene-1.json-line-24

That's why it's a "sensitive" story. I was just knocking to see if your ear was listening. But now I'll begin: first of all, we came down a muddy hill, my master riding behind my mistress.

Both of one horse?

romeo-and-juliet-act-5-scene-3.json-line-21

Holy father, it is there along with my master, whom you love.

Who is it?

twelfth-night-act-5-scene-1.json-line-22

Well then, sir, I'll sing a lullaby to your generosity while I'm gone, so it can nap until I return. I'll go now, sir, but don't think that I'm doing this just because I'm greedyI'm more interested in the art of begging than the actual money. But as you say, sir, let your generosity sleep, and I'll wake it up soon.

Here comes the man, sir, that did rescue me.

romeo-and-juliet-act-4-scene-5.json-line-9

What? Let me see her. No! Shes cold. Her blood has stopped, and her joints are stiff. Life left her body a long while ago. Death rests on her like an unexpected frost that killed the most beautiful flower.

O lamentable day!

the-tempest-act-1-scene-2.json-line-42

You should know this much: by a strange chance, the goddess of luck (whom I now love) has brought my old enemies to this island. And by my magic senses, I can tell that my opportunity for good fortune depends on this lucky circumstance. And if I do not act but instead do nothing, then I will never again have such an opportunity. No more questions now. You are sleepy. Its a good time for sleepiness, so give in to it. I know you have no choice.

Come away, servant, come. I am ready now.Approach, my Ariel, come.

richard-iii-act-3-scene-1.json-line-78

Will we hear from you before we go to sleep, Catesby?

You shall, my lord.

the-winters-tale-act-4-scene-4.json-line-188

The quicker the better.

I understand the business, I hear it: to have an open ear, a quick eye, and a nimble hand, is necessary for a cut-purse; a good nose is requisite also, to smell out work for the other senses. I see this is the time that the unjust man doth thrive. What an exchange had this been without boot! What a boot is here with this exchange! Sure the gods do this year connive at us, and we may do any thing extempore. The prince himself is about a piece of iniquity, stealing away from his father with his clog at his heels: if I thought it were a piece of honesty to acquaint the king withal, I would not do't: I hold it the more knavery to conceal it; and therein am I constant to my profession.

pericles-act-5-scene-3.json-line-13

Immortal Diana!

Now I know you better.When we with tears parted Pentapolis,The king my father gave you such a ring.

romeo-and-juliet-act-1-scene-1.json-line-5

But you avoid getting motivated, so you dont ever have to hit.

A dog of the house of Montague moves me.

timon-of-athens-act-4-scene-3.json-line-94

You hate medlar?

Ay, though it look like thee.

richard-iii-act-4-scene-2.json-line-25

You should know, my loving lord: I've heard that the Marquess of Dorset has fled to Richmond in France.

Come hither, Catesby. Rumor it abroad That Anne my wife is very grievous sick. I will take order for her keeping close. Enquire me out some mean poor gentleman, Whom I will marry straight to Clarence' daughter. The boy is foolish, and I fear not him. Look how thou dreamst! I say again, give out That Anne my queen is sick and like to die. About it, for it stands me much upon To stop all hopes whose growth may damage me.

pericles-act-2-scene-1.json-line-50

But listen, sir: we're the ones that pulled this armor out of the rough sea, so there are certain conditions, certain respects to paid. I hope, sir, if you're successful, that you'll remember where you got it from.

Believe 't, I will. By your furtherance I am clothed in steel; And, spite of all the rapture of the sea, This jewel holds his building on my arm: Unto thy value I will mount myself Upon a courser, whose delightful steps Shall make the gazer joy to see him tread. Only, my friend, I yet am unprovided Of a pair of bases.

romeo-and-juliet-act-5-scene-3.json-line-65

[He skims the letter] This letter corroborates the friars story. It describes the course of their love and how he heard of her death. Then he writes that he bought poison from a poor pharmacist and came to this tomb to die and lie with Juliet. Where are these enemies? Capulet! Montague! Do you see how your hate has cursed you? Heaven has in response conspired to kill your joys with love. And because I did not take a firm hand against your feud, Ive lost two of my family members as well. Everyone is punished.

O brother Montague, give me thy hand.This is my daughters jointure, for no moreCan I demand.

timon-of-athens-act-5-scene-1.json-line-4

It can't be anything else. You'll see him high and mighty in Athens again, to be sure. For that reason it's not crazy to appeal to him in his supposed distress. It'll look good for us, and it is likely to end in us receiving what the others got, if it is in fact true that he has money.

What have you now to present unto him?

twelfth-night-act-3-scene-1.json-line-36

I mean to enter the house, sir.

I will answer you with gait and entrance. But we are prevented.

the-tempest-act-2-scene-1.json-line-136

What is this? What are you talking about? It's true that my brother's daughter is the Queen of Tunis as well as the heir to the throne of Naples, and that a great distance separates those two places.

A space whose every cubit Seems to cry out, How shall that Claribel Measure us back to Naples? Keep in Tunis, And let Sebastian wake. Say this were death That now hath seized them. Why, they were no worse Than now they are. There be that can rule Naples As well as he that sleeps, lords that can prate As amply and unnecessarily As this Gonzalo. I myself could make A chough of as deep chat. Oh, that you bore The mind that I do, what a sleep were this For your advancement! Do you understand me?

the-winters-tale-act-2-scene-1.json-line-9

Blue, sir.

Nay, that's a mock: I have seen a lady's noseThat has been blue, but not her eyebrows.

pericles-act-4-scene-1.json-line-26

My job isn't to debate the reason. It's just to do it.

You will not do't for all the world, I hope. You are well favour'd, and your looks foreshow You have a gentle heart. I saw you lately, When you caught hurt in parting two that fought: Good sooth, it show'd well in you: do so now: Your lady seeks my life; come you between, And save poor me, the weaker.

richard-iii-act-1-scene-4.json-line-64

Never, my lord. So prepare to die.

Are you drawn forth among a world of men To slay the innocent? What is my offense? Where is the evidence that doth accuse me? What lawful quest have given their verdict up Unto the frowning judge? Or who pronounced The bitter sentence of poor Clarence' death Before I be convict by course of law? To threaten me with death is most unlawful. I charge you, as you hope to have redemption, By Christs dear blood shed for our grievous sins, That you depart, and lay no hands on me. The deed you undertake is damnable.

You made an oath of eternal love, which was confirmed by joining hands, proved by a holy kiss, and strengthened by an exchange of rings. I witnessed and approved all this in my official capacity as a priest. All this took place only two hours ago.

O thou dissembling cub! What wilt thou be When time hath sowed a grizzle on thy case? Or will not else thy craft so quickly grow That thine own trip shall be thine overthrow? Farewell, and take her; but direct thy feet Where thou and I henceforth may never meet.

[Reading the oracle] Hermione is virtuous,Polixenes is blameless,Camillo is a loyal subject,Leontes is a jealous tyrant,The baby is his biological daughter,And the king will have no heirUntil he finds that which is lost.

Now blessed be the great Apollo!

I found it in my room, and Iago himself just confessed that he left it there on purpose as part of his plan.

O fool! fool! fool!

Good question, my dear girl. My story does indeed bring up that question. My dear, they didnt dare. Because I was so loved by the people of Milan, Antonio and Alonso had to keep any blood from staining their actions, and hide their evil goals behind a prettier picture. In short, they hurried us onto a ship and carried us a few miles out to sea. There, they had prepared a rotten shell of a boat that had no ropes, equipment, sails, or a mast. Even the rats had abandoned it when they sensed its likelihood to sink.They lowered us down into the water. We were left to cry out to the sea, which just roared back at us. We sighed in sadness to the wind, which sighed back in pity. And in doing so it buffeted us with winds thatno matter how lovingonly made us more uncomfortable.

Alack, what troubleWas I then to you!

I swore I would, so here we go . . . [He grabs MARINA]

Hold, villain!

Actually, it seems the "fool" goes with you.

No, thou stand'st single, thou'rt not on him yet.

Yes, she may, Lord Rivers. Why, everyone knows that she may. And she may do more than just denying that, sir. She may help you to many nice promotions and then deny that she aided you, claiming that you won those honors through your own merit. What may she not do? She may, yes, by God, she may

What, marry, may she?

othello-act-5-scene-1.json-line-10

Oh, I am a villain.

It is even so.

Your argument is contradictory, a forced attempt to make gross actions seem justifiable. Your rhetoric reaches almost to the point of labor as it tries to turn murder into a mere formality and feuding into an act of valor. Feuds actually prove to be valor in its most degenerate form, as they come from the formation of rivalries. A man is truly valiant only when he can endure the worst insults men can speak, and even wear them like clothing without a care in the world. True valor never takes injury to heart, or retaliates in violence. If acts of injustice are in fact evil and force us to kill others, how dumb it would be then to risk your life for such a cause!

My lord,

You can say it, but don't swear it.

Not swear it, now I am a gentleman? Let boors andfranklins say it, I'll swear it.

I'm afraid that meat like that is choleric and will make you angry. What do you say to a fat cow stomach, well-broiled?

I like it well. Good Grumio, fetch it me.

Look at this huge crowd of flooding visitors. I have in this draft of my poem drawn the outline of a man beloved and embraced by the earthly world. I do not mean to represent particular people, but work in generalities as if my tablet were an entire sea of wax. Personal grudges do not affect even the smallest details of my writing. My creative process flies forth, strong as an eagle in flight, and leaves no trace of its earthly inspirations.

How shall I understand you?

twelfth-night-act-1-scene-5.json-line-48

Holy lady, you've spoken so highly of us foolsit's almost as if your eldest son was going to be a fool. And may God cram his skull with brains, for here comes one of your relatives whose head is quite empty.

By mine honor, half-drunk. What is he at the gate, cousin?

[To GREMIO and HORTENSIO] Gentlemen, I want to make good on what I've saidso Bianca, go inside. And don't let this make you unhappy, good Bianca, for I'll never love you any less, my girl.

A pretty peat! It is bestPut finger in the eye, an she knew why.

I already said that, you stupid thing. Caliban, who I now keep as a servant. You know better than anyone the pain you were in when I found you. Your groans made wolves howl, and made perpetually angry bears feel pity for you. The spell that Sycorax put on youand which she could not undowas something fit only for souls damned to hell. When I arrived on the island and heard you, it was my magic that made the pine tree open and let you out.

I thank thee, master.

timon-of-athens-act-4-scene-3.json-line-5

What is your name? Has mankind been so awful to you? You are a man, after all.

I am Misanthropos, and hate mankind.For thy part, I do wish thou wert a dog,That I might love thee something.
