Quote #10

RICHARD
Three times bestrid him. Thrice led him off,
Persuaded him from any further act;
But still, where danger was, still there I met him,
And like rich hangings in a homely house,
So was his will in his old feeble body. (5.3.10-14)

Richard says that Salisbury is weak in body but not in mind. Salisbury might be physically weak due to age, but he sure knows how to fight. His comments show us that weakness is not just about brute strength.
