I know them, yea, and what they weigh, even to the utmost scruple; scambling, out-facing, fashion-mong'ring boys, that lie, and cog, and flout, deprave, and slander, go antickly, and show outward hideousness, and speak off half a dozen dangerous words, how they might hurt their enemies, if they durst; and this is all.

More From William Shakespeare

When looking for a life partner, my advice to women is date all of them: the bad boys, the cool boys, the commitment-phobic boys, the crazy boys. but do not marry them. the things that make the bad boys sexy do not make them good husbands. when it comes time to settle down, find someone who wants an equal partner. someone who thinks women should be smart, opinionated and ambitious. someone who values fairness and expects or, even better, wants to do his share in the home. these men exist and, trust me, over time, nothing is sexier.

Flout 'em, and scout 'em; and scout 'em, and flout 'em; / thought is free.

I believe that fallen creatures perish, perish for ever, for only good can live, and good has not been theirs; but how durst men forge our saviour's words "eternal death " into so horrible a meaning? and even if he did use other words, and seem to countenance such a meaning for them (and what witness have we that he did, except that of men whose ignorance or prejudice might well have interpreted these words wrongly as they did so many others?

For we let our young men and women go out unarmed in a day when armor was never so necessary. by teaching them to read, we have left them at the mercy of the printed word. by the invention of the film and the radio, we have made certain that no aversion to reading shall secure them from the incessant battery of words, words, words. they do not know what the words mean; they do not know how to ward them off or blunt their edge or fling them back; they are prey to words in their emotions instead of being the masters of them in their intellects.

They say that when god was in jerusalem he forgave his murderers, but now he will not forgive an honest man for differing with him on the subject of the trinity. they say that god says to me, "forgive your enemies." i say, "i do;" but he says, "i will damn mine." god should be consistent. if he wants me to forgive my enemies he should forgive his. i am asked to forgive enemies who can hurt me. god is only asked to forgive enemies who cannot hurt him. he certainly ought to be as generous as he asks us to be.
