Love Over Ceremony
Me rather had my heart might feel your love
Than my unpleased eye see your courtesy.
-Richard II,
Act III, Scene iii

Me rather had my heart might feel your love
Than my unpleased eye see your courtesy.
-Richard II,
Act III, Scene iii

I know I love in vain, strive against hope;
Yet in this captious and intenible sieve
I still pour in the waters of my love
–All’s Well That Ends Well,
Act I, Scene iii

I know love is begun by time,
And that I see, in passages of proof,
Time qualifies the spark and fire of it.
^Hamlet,
Act IV, Scene vii

Love’s strong passion is impress’d in youth:
By our remembrances of days foregone.
–All’s Well That Ends Well,
Act I, Scene iii

Alas, that love, so gentle in his view,
Should be so tyrannous and rough in proof!
–Romeo and Juliet,
Act I, Scene i

For love is like a child,
That longs for every thing that he can come by.
–Two Gentlemen of Verona,
Act III, Scene i

The ambition in my love thus plagues itself:
The hind that would be mated by the lion
Must die for love.
–All’s Well That Ends Well,
Act I, Scene i
