Remember that when you meet your antagonist, to do everything in a mild agreeable manner. Let your courage be keen, but, at the same time, as polished as your sword.
Those that vow the most are the least sincere.
The surest way to fail is not to determine to succeed.
My valor is certainly going, it is sneaking off! I feel it oozing out as it were, at the palms of my hands!
Do thou snatch treasures from my lips, and I'll take kingdoms back from thine.
To smile at the jest which plants a thorn in another's breast is to become a principal in the mischief.
