To you Antonio I owe the most in money and in love for your love I have warranty
My purse my person my extremist means lie unlocked to all your occasions
In Belmont a lady richly leftand she is fair fairer than the word
Her name is portia nothing undervalued
From every coast renowned suitors and her sunny locks hang on her temples like golden fleece
And many Jason's come in quest with her
I hate him for he is a Christian - shylock
The devil can cite scripture for its purpose
But love is blind and lovers cannot see the pretty follies that Themselves commit-jessica
If you prick us do we not bleed? if you tickle us do we not laugh? if you poison us do we not die? and if you wrong us shall we not revenge? If we are like you in the rest we will resemble you in that-shylock
A pound of flesh would make me lose my mind, spare me the life and let me pay in gold-bassanio
The quality of mercy is not strained
How far that little candle throws his beams! so shines a good deed in a naughty world
The slaves are ours so do I answer you the pound of flesh which I demand of him is dearly bought tis mine and I will have it
All that glisters is not gold
If he had the condition of a saint but the complexion of a devil I had rather he shrive me than wive me
You call me a misbeliever cutthroat dog
And spit upon my Jewish gaberdine
If I can catch him once upon the hip I will feed the ancient grudge i bear him
Cursed be my tribe if I forgive him
The quality of mercy is not strained it droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath it is doubly blessed, it blesses him that gives and him that takes
Mislike me not for my complexion the shadowed livery of the burnished sun
But since I am a dogbeware my fangs
Our house is hell and thou a merry devil
As the dog Jew did utter in the streets O my daughter ! Or my ducats! O my daughter !
I shall end this strife become a Christian and thy loving wife
I am a daughter to his blood but not his manners
Most beautiful pagan most sweet Jew
Truly written by a beautiful hand one fairer than the paper it wrote on
Beautiful Jessica will be my torchbearer
Here catch this casket it is worth the pains
The villainy you teach me I shall execute and it shall go hard but I will better the instruction
An inhuman wretch incapable of pity,void and empty from any dram of mercy
By my troth Nerissa my little body has grown aweary of this great world
O me the word choose! I may neither choose who I would nor refuse who I dislike
So is the will of a living daughter curbed by the will of a dead father
Lest cross my prayers here comes the devil in the likeness of a Jew
Enter prince of Morocco with three or fourfollowers with portia, nerissa and their train
Descend for youmust be my torchbearer
A gentle riddance!Draw the curtains go let all of his complexions choose me so
