“Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounced it to youtrippingly on the tongue; but if you mouth it, as many of your players do, I had as lief the town-crier spoke my lines.

—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“I have always heard, Sancho, that doing good to base fellows is like throwing water into the sea.”
