WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE QUOTES II

But, O, how bitter a thing it is to look into happiness through another man's eyes!

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE, As You Like It

For marriage is a matter of more worth

Than to be dealt with in attorneyship.

For what is wedlock forced but a hell,

An age of discord and continued strife?

Whereas the contrary bringeth forth bliss,

And is a pattern of celestial peace.

Let me not to the marriage of true minds

Admit impediments. Love is not love

Which alters when it alteration finds,

Or bends with the remover to remove.

Oh, no, it is an ever-fixèd mark

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;

It is the star to every wandering bark

Whose worth's unknown, although its height be taken.

The world must be peopled. When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married.
