    But I say to you that listen, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 6:27,28.

    Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounced it to you—trippingly on the tongue; but if you mouth it, as many of your players do, I had as lief the town-crier spoke my lines. Nor do not saw the air too much with your hand, thus, but use all gently; for in the very torrent, tempest, and as I may say, the whirlwind of your passion, you must acquire and beget a temperance that may give it smoothness.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
