威尼斯商人經(jīng)典臺詞
『威尼斯商人』中,阿爾怕西諾的那段臺詞,念得太地道了,是第3幕第一部分的：
To bait fish withal:
拿來釣魚也好；
if it will feed nothing else,it will feed my revenge.
即使他的肉不中吃,至少也可以出出我這一口氣.
He hath disgraced me,and hindered me half a million; laughed at my losses,

挖苦著我的盈余,侮蔑我的民族,
thwarted my bargains,cooled my friends,heated mine enemies;
破壞我的買賣,離間我的朋友,煽動我的仇敵；
and what's his reason?I am a Jew.
他的理由是什么?只因為我是一個猶太人.
Hath not a Jew eyes?hath not a Jew hands,organs,

沒有知覺、沒有感情、沒有血氣嗎?
fed with the same food,hurt with the same weapons,
他不是吃著同樣的食物,同樣的武器可以傷害他,
subject to the same diseases,healed by the same means,
warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer,as a Christian is?
