Hoyt & Roberts, comps. Hoyt’s New Cyclopedia of Practical Quotations. 1922.

Consideration

Consideration, like an angel came
And whipp’d the offending Adam out of him,
Leaving his body as a paradise,
To envelope and contain celestial spirits.
Henry V. Act 1. Sc. 1. L. 28.

What you have said
I will consider; what you have to say
I will with patience hear, and find a time
Both meet to hear and answer such high things.
Julius Cæsar. Act I. Sc. 2. L. 168.

A stirring dwarf we do allowance give
Before a sleeping giant.
Troilus and Cressida. Act II. Sc. 3. L. 146.
