Duchess of malfi quotes
- Family
- Shall our blood, The royal blood of Aragon and
Castile, Be thus attainted?
- She's an
excellent
Feeder of
pedigrees
- Shall our blood, The royal blood of Aragon and
Castile, Be thus attainted?
- Marraige
- Diamonds are of most value, They say, that have
passed through most jewellers' hands
- Ferdinand: Let not youth, high promotion, eloquence— Cardinal: No, nor any thing without the
addition, honour, Sway your high blood. Ferdinand: Marry? They are most luxurious Will wed twice
- Let old wives report I winked
and chose a husband
- The misery of us that are born great, We are
forced to woo because none dare woo us:
- Whether the spirit of greatness or of woman Reign most in her, I know not, but it shows A fearful
madness
- Oh fie upon this single life! Forgo it: We read how Daphne, for her peevish flight, Became a fruitless
bay-tree
- Why should only I Of all the other princes of the world Be cased up like a holy relic? I have youth, And
a little beauty
- You violate a sacrament o'th'Church
Shall make you howl in hell for't
- Diamonds are of most value, They say, that have
passed through most jewellers' hands
- Lies and deciet
- I can be angry Without this rupture; there is
not in nature A thing that makes man so
deformed, so beastly, As doth intemperate
anger
- Bosola: What do you intend to do? Ferdinand: Can you guess? Bosola: No
Ferdinand: Do not ask, then. He that can compass me and know my drifts May
say that he hath put a girdle 'bout the world And sounded all her quicksands
- What rests, but I reveal All to my lord? Oh,
this base quality Of intelligencer!
- Where I am a man I'd beat that counterfeit
face into thy other
- Bosola: Never in mine own shape, That's forfeited by my intelligence And this last cruel lie. When you
send me next The business shall be comfort
- I'll go in mine own shape
- think what danger 'tis To receive a prince's secrets: they that do Had need have their breasts hooped
with adamant To contain them
- Cardinal: […] Think you, your Bosom will be a grave dark and obscure enough for such a secret? […]
Julia: It lies not in me to conceal it.
- I can be angry Without this rupture; there is
not in nature A thing that makes man so
deformed, so beastly, As doth intemperate
anger
- Duty
- Though some o'th'court hold it presumption To instruct princes what they ought to do, It is a noble
duty to inform them What they ought to forsee
- I am making my will, as 'tis fit princes should
- This is flesh and blood, sir,
'Tis not the figure cut in
alabaster Kneels at my
husband's tomb
- I have heard you say that the French courtiers wear their hats on 'fore the King. […] Why should we
not bring up that fashion? 'Tis ceremony more than duty that consists In the removing of a piece of
felt. Be you the example to the rest o'th'court, Put on your hat first.
- we observe in tragedies That a good
actor many times is cursed
- I'll join with thee [Antonio] in a most just revenge: The weakest arm is strong enough that strikes
With the swords of justice
- Though some o'th'court hold it presumption To instruct princes what they ought to do, It is a noble
duty to inform them What they ought to forsee
- Society and class
- Could I be one of their flatt'ring panders, I would hang on their ears like a horse-leech till I were full,
and then drop off. […] Who would rely upon these miserable dependences, in expectation to be
advanced tomorrow?
- I am your creature
- look no higher than I can reach […] when a man's mind rides faster than his horse can gallop, they
quickly both tire.
- Saucy slave I'll pull thee up by the roots!
- How fearfully Shows his
ambition now
- Duchess: But he was basely descended. Bosola: Will you make yourself a mercenary herald, Rather to
examine men's pedigrees than virtues? You shall want him
- Here's a strange turn of state: who would have thought So great a lady would have matched herself
Unto so mean a person? Yet the Cardinal Bears himself much too crue
- Yet stay, heaven gates are not so highly arched As princes' palaces: they that enter there Must go
upon their knees. [Kneels]
- Could I be one of their flatt'ring panders, I would hang on their ears like a horse-leech till I were full,
and then drop off. […] Who would rely upon these miserable dependences, in expectation to be
advanced tomorrow?
- Power
- In seeking to reduce both state and people To a fixed order, their judicious king Begins at home, quits
first his royal palace Of flatt'ring sycophants, of dissolute And infamous persons […] Consid'ring duly
that a prince's court Is like a common fountain, whence should flow Pure silver drops in general, but
if't chance Some cursed example poison't near the head, Death and diseases through the whole land
spread.
- Methinks you that are courtiers should be
my touchwood, take fire when I give fire
- He and his brother are like plum trees that grow crooked over standing pools: they are rich, and
o'erladen with fruit, but none but crows pies and caterpillars feed on them.
- places in the court are but like beds in the hospital, where this man's head lies at that man's foot,
and so lower, and lower.
- Where he is jealous of any man he lays worse plots for them than ever was imposed on Hercules, for
he strews in his way flatterers, panders, intelligencers, atheists, and a thousand such political
monsters.
- For know: an honest statesman to a prince Is like a cedar planted by a spring; The spring bathes the
tree's root, the grateful tree Rewards it with his shadow. You have not done so. I would sooner swim
to the Bermoothes […] Than depend on so changeable a prince's favour!

- Much you had of land and rent, Your length in clay's now competent; A long war disturbed your
mind, Here your perfect peace is signed
- I am Duchess of Malfi still
- In seeking to reduce both state and people To a fixed order, their judicious king Begins at home, quits
first his royal palace Of flatt'ring sycophants, of dissolute And infamous persons […] Consid'ring duly
