Insult/formal

Famous quotes containing the words insult and/or formal:

    To insult a friend implies that you respect his masculinity enough to know he can take it without acting like a crybaby. The swapping of insults, like the fighting between brothers, becomes the seal of the male bonding.
    Frank Pittman (20th century)

    Good gentlemen, look fresh and merrily.
    Let not our looks put on our purposes,
    But bear it as our Roman actors do,
    With untired spirits and formal constancy.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
