"You know that without my answering you." "Well, then, his star outshines mine and compels me to be on my guard against him." "How mean! You are afraid of the praetor?" "No, but of his fortune which is bound up with you?" "When he is our son his greatness will be ours." "By no means, since if I make him what you wish him to be, he will certainly try to make our greatness his. Destiny "
You needn't give him her speeches, but you can put them somewhere else, in some of the scenes with Atland; it won't make any difference how much she outshines him, poor fellow." He would not be entreated at once, but after letting her talk on to much the same effect for awhile, he said, "I will see what can be done with it. At present I am sick of the whole thing."

But the woes of country boyhood are naught in comparison to its joys, and a day in a berry field, or a morning among the chestnut trees, under the blue sky and a west wind, with merry companions, is a memory that outshines all the purchased pleasures of later life. Confess to me, ye humble and trivial things, confess what charms were yours, which never the flood of years submerges.
Piccolissima did not know the name they give to these small eyes, nor that a writer on the subject had said, that the diadem of the fly outshines that of queens, but she could not refrain from saying aloud, "O, my little friend, pray tell me what you do with so many eyes?" "What do I do with them, indeed! why, I look," answered the fly, a little vexed at being disturbed in his repast.
Will you hang your head in his presence, because he outshines you in equipage and show? Lift up your brow with a noble confidence, and say to yourself, "I have not these things, it is true; but it is because I have not desired, or sought them; it is because I possess something better.

A porter that stood beside him, emboldened by barley beer and the growing disapproval among the on-lookers, cried: "Ha! by the rags of my fathers, she outshines her masters, the brickmaking hag!"
It contains his most exquisite lyrics, his tenderest love passages, and one glimpse of fairyland which I cannot but think outshines the utmost beauty of A Midsummer Night's Dream: Prospero's farewell to the "elves of hills, brooks, standing lakes, and groves." Again a miracle; these are things which cannot be staled by repetition.
