SHYLOCK There I have another bad match!—a bankrupt, a prodigal who dare scarce show his head on the Rialto, a beggar that was used to come so smug upon the mart. Let him look to his bond. He was wont to call me usurer; let him look to his bond. He was wont to lend money for a Christian courtesy; let him look to his bond.
SALARINO Why, I am sure, if he forfeit thou wilt not take his flesh. What’s that good for?
SHYLOCK 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 villainy you teach me I will execute—and it shall go hard but I will better the instruction.

SHYLOCK
That’s another bad deal I’ve made!—a bankrupt, a spendthrift, who now has to hide his head on the Rialto, a beggar who used to look so smug in front of the other merchants. Let him think about his own debt. He liked to call me a loan shark; let him think about his debt to me. He used to lend money as a favor between Christians; but now, let him think about his own debt.
SALARINO
But you won’t take his flesh if he can’t pay. What’s that good for?
SHYLOCK
I’ll use it for fish bait. You can’t eat human flesh, but if it feeds nothing else, it’ll feed my revenge. He’s insulted me and cost me half a million ducats. He’s laughed at my losses, made fun of my earnings, humiliated my race, thwarted my deals, turned my friends against me, riled up my enemies—and why? Because I’m a Jew. Doesn’t a Jew have eyes? Doesn’t a Jew have hands, bodily organs, a human shape, five senses, feelings, and passions? Doesn’t a Jew eat the same food, get hurt with the same weapons, get sick with the same diseases, get healed by the same medicine, and warm up in summer and cool off in winter just like a Christian? If you prick us with a pin, don’t we bleed? If you tickle us, don’t we laugh? If you poison us, don’t we die? And if you treat us badly, won’t we try to get revenge? If we’re like you in everything else, we’ll resemble you in that respect. If a Jew offends a Christian, what’s the Christian’s kind and gentle reaction? Revenge. If a Christian offends a Jew, what punishment will he come up with if he follows the Christian example? Of course, the same thing—revenge! I’ll treat you as badly as you Christians taught me to—and you’ll be lucky if I don’t outdo my teachers.

シャイロック
ユダヤ人は目なし、手なし、臓腑なし、感覚・感情・情熱、すべて無し。何もかもキリスト教徒とは違うとでも言うのかな? 毒を飲まされても死なない、だからひどい目にあわされても仕返しはするな、そうおっしゃるんですかい? だが、他の事があんた方（キリスト教徒）と同じなら、その点だって同じだろうぜ。キリスト教徒がユダヤ人にひどい目にあわされたら、（右の頬を打たれたら左の頬を差し出せという）御自慢の温情はなんと言いますかな? 仕返しと来る。それなら、ユダヤ人がキリスト教徒にひどい目にあわされたら、我々はあんた方をお手本に、やはり仕返しだ。

サレアリオー
お前さん、聞いているかい？アントーニオーが海で損をしたとかいう話
シャイロック
あの証文を忘れるな！俺の顔さえ見れば、高利貸しとぬかしおって。証文を忘れるな！いつも無利子で金を貸しやがって、それがキリスト教徒の仁義だと
サレアリオー
待て、まさか金が返せなかったら、あの男の肉をよこせとは言うまいね。そんなもの何の役にもたつまい
シャイロック
たつさ。それを餌にして魚が釣れる。腹の足しにはならなくても、腹いせはできようが。あの男は俺に恥をかかせた、五十万は儲けの邪魔をしやがった、損をしたと言っては笑い、得をしたと言ってはあざける。何のためだ？ユダヤ人だからさ。ユダヤ人は同じものを食ってないと言うのかね。同じ刃物では傷がつかない、同じ病気にかからない、同じ薬では治らない、何もかもキリスト教徒とは違うとでも言うのか？針で刺してみるかい、我々の体からは血が出ませんかな？キリスト教徒がユダヤ人にひどい目にあわされたら、ご自慢の温情は仕返しとくる。それならユダヤ人がキリスト教徒にひどい目にあわされたら、我々持ち前の忍従は、あんた方のお手本から何を学べばいい？やっぱり、仕返しだ
