Why should Source: CYMBELINE Will you ha' the truth an't? If this had not been a gentlewoman, she should have been buried out o' Christian burial It is but foolery; but it is such a kind of gaingiving as would perhaps trouble a woman In good faith, 'a cares not what mischief he does, if his weapon be out; he will foin like any devil; he will spare neither man, woman, nor child Wilt thou? wilt thou? thou bastardly rogue! Murder, murder! Ah, thou honeysuckle villain! wilt thou kill God's officers and the King's? Ah, thou honey-seed rogue! thou art a honey-seed; a man-queller and a woman-queller You speak as having power to do wrong; but answer in th' effect of your reputation, and satisfy the poor woman Where is my strength, my valour, and my force? Our English troops retire, I cannot stay them; A woman clad in armour chaseth them [Aside] She's beautiful, and therefore to be woo'd; She is a woman, therefore to be won These tears are my sweet Rutland's obsequies; And every drop cries vengeance for his death 'Gainst thee, fell Clifford, and thee, false Frenchwoman Helen of Greece was fairer far than thou, Although thy husband may be Menelaus; And ne'er was Agamemmon's brother wrong'd By that false woman as this king by thee I do profess You speak not like yourself, who ever yet Have stood to charity and display'd th' effects Of disposition gentle and of wisdom O'ertopping woman's pow'r Cromwell, I did not think to shed a tear In all my miseries; but thou hast forc'd me, Out of thy honest truth, to play the woman But, woe the while! Our fathers' minds are dead, And we are govern'd with our mothers' spirits; Our yoke and sufferance show us womanish O constancy, be strong upon my side! Set a huge mountain 'tween my heart and tongue! I have a man's mind, but a woman's might Let not the creaking of shoes nor the rustling of silks betray thy poor heart to woman See thyself, devil! Proper deformity seems not in the fiend So horrid as in woman Ha! What is't thou say'st, Her voice was ever soft, Gentle, and low- an excellent thing in woman 'with a child of our grandmother Eve, a female; or, for thy more sweet understanding, a woman good Boyet, You are not ignorant all-telling fame Doth noise abroad Navarre hath made a vow, Till painful study shall outwear three years, No woman may approach his silent court A great perturbation in nature, to receive at once the benefit of sleep and do the effects of watching! In this slumbery agitation, besides her walking and other actual performances, what, at any time, have you heard her say? GENTLEWOMAN But swords I smile at, weapons laugh to scorn, Brandish'd by man that's of a woman born Let fall thy blade on vulnerable crests; I bear a charmed life, which must not yield To one of woman born First, an it like you, the house is a respected house; next, this is a respected fellow; and his mistress is a respected woman They say this Angelo was not made by man and woman after this downright way of creation If the man be a bachelor, sir, I can; but if he be a married man, he's his wife's head, and I can never cut of a woman's head Why, yet it lives there uncheck'd that Antonio hath a ship of rich lading wreck'd on the narrow seas; the Goodwins I think they call the place, a very dangerous flat and fatal, where the carcases of many a tall ship lie buried, as they say, if my gossip Report be an honest woman of her word Nay, you shall hear, Master Brook, what I have suffer'd to bring this woman to evil for your good What, hoa, Mistress Page! Come you and the old woman down; my husband will come into the chamber I went to her, Master Brook, as you see, like a poor old man; but I came from her, Master Brook, like a poor old woman If I had been married to him, for all he was in woman's apparel, I would not have had him I think I told your lordship, a year since, how much I am in the favour of Margaret, the waiting gentlewoman to Hero One woman is fair, yet I am well; another is wise, yet I am well; another virtuous, yet I am well; but till all graces be in one woman, one woman shall not come in my grace But know that I have to-night wooed Margaret, the Lady Hero's gentlewoman, by the name of Hero I do attend here on the general; And think it no addition, nor my wish, To have him see me woman'd And to see how he prizes the foolish woman your wife! She gave it him, and he hath given it his whore What she bid me say, I will keep to myself; but first let me tell ye, if ye should lead her into a fool's paradise, as they say, it were a very gross kind of behaviour, as they say; for the gentlewoman is young; and therefore, if you should deal double with her, truly it were an ill thing to be off'red to any gentlewoman, and very weak dealing This fellow I remember Since once he play'd a farmer's eldest son; 'Twas where you woo'd the gentlewoman so well Re-enter KATHERINA with BIANCA and WIDOW See where she comes, and brings your froward wives As prisoners to her womanly persuasion Diana's lip Is not more smooth and rubious; thy small pipe Is as the maiden's organ, shrill and sound, And all is semblative a woman's part My niece shall take note of it; and assure thyself there is no love-broker in the world can more prevail in man's commendation with woman than report of valour [To VIOLA] Boy, thou hast said to me a thousand times Thou never shouldst love woman like to me That man that hath a tongue, I say, is no man, If with his tongue he cannot win a woman O villain, that set this down among her vices! To be slow in words is a woman's only virtue Come, I must bring you to our captain's cave; Fear not; he bears an honourable mind, And will not use a woman lawlessly [Aside] What I do next shall be to tell the King Of this escape, and whither they are bound; Wherein my hope is I shall so prevail To force him after; in whose company I shall re-view Sicilia, for whose sight I have a woman's longing Quotes for: Shakespeare Quotes
