夏洛克：拿來(lái)釣魚(yú)也好；即使他的肉不中吃,至少也可以出出我這一口氣.他曾經(jīng)羞辱過(guò)我,奪去我?guī)资f(wàn)塊錢(qián)的生意,譏笑著我的虧蝕,挖苦著我的盈余,侮蔑我的民族,破壞我的買(mǎi)賣(mài),離間我的朋友,煽動(dòng)我的仇敵；他的理由是什么?只因?yàn)槲沂且粋€(gè)猶太人.難道猶太人沒(méi)有眼睛嗎?難道猶太人沒(méi)有五官四肢、沒(méi)有知覺(jué)、沒(méi)有感情、沒(méi)有血?dú)鈫?他不是吃著同樣的食物,同樣的武器可以傷害他,同樣的醫(yī)藥可以療治他,冬天同樣會(huì)冷,夏天同樣會(huì)熱,就像一個(gè)基督徒一樣嗎?你們要是用刀劍刺我們,我們不是也會(huì)出血的嗎?你們要是搔我們的癢,我們不是也會(huì)笑起來(lái)的嗎?你們要是用毒藥謀害我們,我們不是也會(huì)死的嗎?那么要是你們欺侮了我們,我們難道不會(huì)復(fù)仇嗎?要是在別的地方我們都跟你們一樣,那么在這一點(diǎn)上也是彼此相同的.要是一個(gè)猶太人欺侮了一個(gè)基督徒,那基督徒怎樣表現(xiàn)他的謙遜?報(bào)仇.要是一個(gè)基督徒欺侮了一個(gè)猶太人,那么照著基督徒的榜樣,那猶太人應(yīng)該怎樣表現(xiàn)他的寬容?報(bào)仇.你們已經(jīng)把殘虐的手段教給我,我一定會(huì)照著你們的教訓(xùn)實(shí)行,而且還要加倍奉敬哩.
第三幕第一場(chǎng)）
To bait fish withal: if it will feed nothing else,
it will feed my revenge. He hath disgraced me, and
hindered me half a million; laughed at my losses,
mocked at my gains, scorned my nation, thwarted my
bargains, cooled my friends, heated mine
enemies; and what's his reason? I am a Jew. Hath
not a Jew eyes? hath not a Jew hands, organs,
dimensions, senses, affections, passions? fed with
the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject
to the same diseases, healed by the same means,
warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer, as
a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not bleed?
if you tickle us, do we not laugh? if you poison
us, do we not die? and if you wrong us, shall we not
revenge? If we are like you in the rest, we will
resemble you in that. If a Jew wrong a Christian,
what is his humility? Revenge. If a Christian
wrong a Jew, what should his sufferance be by
Christian example? Why, revenge. The villany you
teach me, I will execute, and it shall go hard but I
will better the instruction.
