Status Updates From The Tempest

Now my charms are all o’erthrown,
And what strength I have ’s mine own,
Which is most faint. Now ’tis true
I must be here confined by you,
Or sent to Naples. Let me not,
Since I have my dukedom got
And pardoned the deceiver, dwell
In this bare island by your spell,
But release me from my bands
With the help of your good hands.

(Prospero talks to audience; he reveals he has given up magic + applause. Epilogue)

O wonder!
How many goodly creatures are there here!
How beauteous mankind is! O, brave new world
That has such people in ’t!

(Miranda; at sight of seeing so many new men Act 5 Sc. 1)

omg!!!!! the origins of the title 'brave new world'...!!

TRINCOLO: Ay, but to lose our bottles in the pool!
STEPHANO: There is not only disgrace and dishonor in
that, monster, but an infinite loss.
TRINCOLO: That’s more to me than my wetting. Yet this
is your harmless fairy, monster!
STEPHANO: I will fetch off my bottle, though I be o’er
ears for my labor.

(Trincolo and Stephano so sad that they lost their wine in the pool that Ariel sent them in Act 4 Sc 1)

A devil, a born devil, on whose nature
Nurture can never stick; on whom my pains,
Humanely taken, all, all lost, quite lost;
And as with age his body uglier grows,
So his mind cankers. I will plague them all
Even to roaring.

(Prospero to Ariel about Caliban; cursing him for being a devil!! Act 4 Sc. 1)

We are such stuff
As dreams are made on, and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep.

(Prospero to Ferdinand, Act 4 Sc. 1)
