(About Enemy, Friendship, Reasoning)

He hath disgrac'd me and hind'red me half a million; laugh'd at my losses, mock'd at my gains, scorned my nation, thwarted my bargains, cooled my friends, heated my enemies. And what's his reason? I am a Jew.

("The Merchant of Venice")

And thereupon give me your daughter.

And presently, all humbled, kiss the rod!

When thou dost meet good hap; and in thy danger,
If ever danger do environ thee,
Commend thy grievance to my holy prayers,
For I will be thy headsman, Valentine.
William Shakespeare

By their own beauties; or, if love be blind,
It best agrees with night.
William Shakespeare
