For me it's based Gnaeus:
>Coriolanus. He that will give good words to thee will flatter
>Beneath abhorring. What would you have, you curs,
>That like nor peace nor war? the one affrights you,170
>The other makes you proud. He that trusts to you,
>Where he should find you lions, finds you hares;
>Where foxes, geese: you are no surer, no,
>Than is the coal of fire upon the ice,
>Or hailstone in the sun. Your virtue is175
>To make him worthy whose offence subdues him
>And curse that justice did it.
>Who deserves greatness
>Deserves your hate; and your affections are
>A sick man's appetite, who desires most that180
>Which would increase his evil. He that depends
>Upon your favours swims with fins of lead
>And hews down oaks with rushes. Hang ye! Trust Ye?
>With every minute you do change a mind,
>And call him noble that was now your hate,185
>Him vile that was your garland. What's the matter,
>That in these several places of the city
>You cry against the noble senate, who,
>Under the gods, keep you in awe, which else
>Would feed on one another? What's their seeking?
