Famous quotes containing the words wear and/or badge:

    She was the first of our rich women to wear many diamonds, and she always looked as if they wearied her.
    M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

    Signor Antonio, many a time and oft
    In the Rialto you have rated me
    About my moneys and my usances.
    Still have I borne it with a patient shrug,
    For sufferance is the badge of all our tribe.
    You call me misbeliever, cutthroat dog,
    And spit upon my Jewish gaberdine,
    And all for use of that which is mine own.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
