So you must be the first that gives this sentence Measure for Measure ( Kate Nelligan)
So you must be the first that gives this sentence, And he, that suffer s. O, it is excellent To have a giant s strength; but it is tyrannous To use it like a giant. LUCIO Aside to ISABELLA That s well said. ISABELLA Could great men thunder As Jove himself does, Jove would ne er be quiet, For every pelting, petty officer Would use his heaven for thunder; Nothing but thunder Merciful Heaven, Thou rather with thy sharp and sulphurous bolt Split st the unwedgeable and gnarled oak Than the soft myrtle: but man, proud man, Drest in a little brief authority, Most ignorant of what he s most assured, His glassy essence, like an angry ape, Plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven As make the angels weep; who, with our spleens, Would all themselves laugh mortal. LUCIO Aside to ISABELLA O, to him, to him, wench he will relent; He s coming; I perceive t. Provost Aside Pray heaven she win him
