Fit thy consent to my sharp appetite, lay by all nicety and prolixious blushes, that banish what they sue for: redeem thy brother By yielding up thy body to my will, or else he must not only die the death, but thy unkindess shall his death draw out To ling'ring sufferance (Yielding Quotes)
Look, as I blow this feather from my face and as the air blows it to me again, obeying with my wind when I do blow and yielding to another when it blows, commanded always by the greater gust - such is the lightness of you common men (Yielding Quotes)
There is a certain delicacy which in yielding conquers; and with a pitiful look makes one find cause to crave help one's self (Yielding Quotes)
