William Shakespeare
“You have too much respect upon the world; They lose it that do buy it with much care”
William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice

William Shakespeare
“Signior Antonio, many a time and oft In the Rialto you have rated me About my moneys and my usances; Still have I borne it with a patient shrug, For suff’rance is the badge of all our tribe; You call me misbeliever, cut-throat dog, And spet upon my Jewish gaberdine, And all for use of that which is mine own. Well then, it now appears you need my help; Go to, then; you come to me, and you say ‘Shylock, we would have moneys.’ You say so: You that did void your rheum upon my beard, And foot me as you spurn a stranger cur Over your threshold; moneys is your suit. What should I say to you? Should I not say ‘Hath a dog money? Is it possible A cur can lend three thousand ducats?’ Or Shall I bend low and, in a bondman’s key, With bated breath and whisp’ring humbleness, Say this:— ‘Fair sir, you spit on me on Wednesday last; You spurn’d me such a day; another time You call’d me dog; and for these courtesies I’ll lend you thus much moneys?”
William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice

William Shakespeare
“How many things by season season'd are, To their right praise and true perfection!”
William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice

William Shakespeare
“God made him, and therefore let him pass for a man. In truth, I know it is a sin to be a mocker, but he! why, he hath a horse better than the Neapolitan’s, a better bad habit of frowning than the Count Palentine; he is every man in no man. If a throstle sing, he falls straight a-cap’ring. He will fence with his own shadow. If I should marry him, I should marry twenty husbands.”
William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice

William Shakespeare
“An evil soul producing holy witness
Is like a villain with a smiling cheek,
A goodly apple rotten at the heart.”
William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice
