I love the name of honor, more than I fear death.
No music is so charming to my ear as the requests of my friends, and the supplications of those in want of my assistance.
All bad precedents begin as justifiable measures.
I had rather be first in a village than second at Rome.
Set honor in one eye and death in th' other, and I will look on both indifferently. I love then name of honor more than I fear death.
If I fail it is only because I have too much pride and ambition.
