Emulation: Quotations from Shakespearian Quotations

For honour travels in a strait so narrow, Where one but goes abreast; keep then the path: For emulation hath a thousand sons, That one by one pursue: If you give way, Or hedge aside from the direct forthright, Like to an entered tide, they all rush by, And leave you hindmost :- Or, like a gallant horse fallen in first rank, Lies there for pavement to the abject rear, O'er-run and trampled on: Then what they do in present, Though less than yours in past, must o'er-top yours.— T. C. iii. 3.
