Affection! Affection is false.

If thy heart fails thee, climb not at all.

Mr. Doctor, that loose gown becomes you so well I wonder your notions should be so narrow.

Though the sex to which I belong is considered weak you will nevertheless find me a rock that bends to no wind.

My mortal foe can no ways wish me a greater harm than England's hate; neither should death be less welcome unto me than such a mishap betide me.

As for me, I see no such great cause why I should either be fond to live or fear to die. I have had good experience of this world, and I know what it is to be a subject and what to be a sovereign. Good neighbours I have had, and I have met with bad: and in trust I have found treason.

I will be as good unto ye as ever a Queen was unto her people. No will in me can lack, neither do I trust shall there lack any power. And persuade yourselves that for the safety and quietness of you all I will not spare if need be to spend my blood.
