- Earl of Warwick: Tell him from me that he hath done me wrong, And therefore I'll uncrown him ere't be long.
- Earl of Warwick: I had rather chop this hand off at a blow and with the other, fling it at thy face, than bear so low a sail as to strike to thee.
- Earl of Warwick: For what is pomp, rule, reign, but earth and dust? Live we how we can, yet die we must.
