battle fares like to the morning's war,
When dying clouds contend with growing light,
What time the shepherd, blowing of his nails,
Can neither call it perfect day nor night. Henry VI, Part 3, 2 .5

I'll drown more sailors than the mermaid shall;
I'll slay more gazers than the basilisk;
I'll play the orator as well as Nestor,
Deceive more slily than Ulysses could,
And, like a Sinon, take another Troy.

Change shapes with Proteus for advantages,
And set the murderous Machiavel to school.
Can I do this, and cannot get a crown?
Tut, were it farther off, I'll pluck it down. Henry VI, Part 3, 3. 2
Peace!
impudent and shameless Warwick, peace;
Proud setter up and puller down of kings! Henry VI, Part 3, 3. 3

Which, being suffered, rivers cannot quench. Henry VI, Part 3, 4. 8

now my glory smeared in dust and blood!
My parks, my walks, my manors that I had,
Even now forsake me; and of all my lands
Is nothing left me but my body's length!
Why, what is pomp, rule, reign, but earth and dust?
And, live we how we can, yet die we must. Henry
VI, Part 3, 5. 2
Suspicion
always haunts the guilty mind;
The thief doth fear each bush an officer. Henry
VI, Part 3 ,5. 6
Down,
down to hell; and say I sent thee thither. Henry
VI, Part 3 ,5. 6
