"I ask for so little. Just let Me rule you and you can have everything that you want. Just fear Me, love Me, do as I say, and I will be your slave."
"One woman is fair, yet I am well;
another is wise, yet I amwell;
another virtuous, yet I am well;
but till all graces be in one woman,
one woman shall not come in my grace.
Rich she shall be, that's certain; wise,
or I'll none; virtuous, or I'll never cheapen her;
fair, or I'll never look on her;
mild, or come not near me;
noble, or not I for an angel;
of good discourse, an excellent musician,
and her hair shall be of what colour it please God"
-Benedick, "Much Ado About Nothing" (W. Shakespeare)
