Movie quotes

  • (..) your hand, your tongue. Look like the innocent flower but be the serpent under't. He that's coming must be provided for and you shall put this night's great business into my dispatch which shall, to all our nights and days to come, give solely sovereign sway and masterdom. We will speak further. (..)
