Antony and Cleopatra
RomeSlide2
What is implied?
Thy father, Pompey, would ne'er have made this treaty
I will praise any man that will praise me
You have been a great thief by sea
If our eyes had authority, here they might take two thieves kissing
All men's faces are true, whatsome'er their hands are
There is never a fair woman has a true faceSlide3
Politics – what is implied?
Pompey doth this day laugh away his fortune
He cannot weep't back again
The policy of that purpose made more in the marriage than the love of the parties
The band that seems to tie their friendship together will be the very strangler of their amity
Holy, cold, and still conversation
He married but his occasion hereSlide4
Weak and strong men in politics
What is suggested?
Some o' their plants are ill-rooted already: the least wind I' the world will blow them down
It raises the greater war between him and his discretion
I had as lief have a reed that will do me no service than a partisan I could not heave
To be called into a huge sphere, and not to be seen to move in't, are the holes where eyes should be, which pitifully disaster the cheeksSlide5
Honour and Betrayal
What does this suggest?
I have ever held my cap off to thy fortunes
These quick-sands, Lepidus, keep off them, for you sink
In me 'tis villainy; in thee't had been good service
'tis not my profit that does lead mine honour; mine honour it
Repent that e'er thy tongue hath so betray'd thine actSlide6
Differing philosophies
What does this suggest about the characters?
Be a child o' the time
Possess it
I had rather fast from all four days than drink so much in one
Till that the conquering wine hath steep'd our sense in soft and gentle Lethe
