Nothing emboldens sin so much as mercy.
If by chance I talk a little wild, forgive me; I had it from my father.
Hardness ever of hardness is mother.
If thou couldst, doctor, cast The water of my land, find her disease, And purge it to a sound and pristine health, I would applaud thee to the very echo, That should applaud you again.
And do as adversaries do in law, strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends.
No worse a husband than the best of men.
