“He that hangs himself is a virgin: virginity murders itself, and should be buried in highways, out of all sanctified limit, as a desperate offendress against nature. Virginity breeds mites, much like a cheese, consumes itself to the very paring, and so dies with feeding his own stomach. Besides, virginity is peevish, proud, idle, made of self-love, which is the most inhibited sin in the canon. Keep it not you cannot choose but lose by’t! Out with’t! within the year it will make itself two, which is a goodly increase, and the principal itself not much the worse. Away with ’t!” - All's Well That Ends Well

Between the acting of a dreadful thing
And the first motion, all the interim is
Like a phantasma, or a hideous dream:

Are then in council and the state of man,
Like to a little kingdom, suffers then
The nature of an insurrection.” - Julius Caesar

With Cupid's arrow. She hath Dian's wit,
And, in strong proff of chastity well armed,
From Love's weak childish bow she lives uncharmed.

Nor bide th' encounter of assailing eyes,
Nor ope her lap to saint-seducing gold.
O, she is rich in beauty only poor
That, when she dies, with dies her store.
Act 1,Scene 1, lines 180-197” - Romeo and Juliet

Читать полностью…“When I have seen by Time's fell hand defaced
The rich proud cost of outworn buried age
When sometime lofty towers I see down-razed
And brass eternal slave to mortal rage
When I have seen the hungry ocean gain
Advantage on the kingdom of the shore,
And the firm soil win of the watery main,
Increasing store with loss and loss with store
When I have seen such interchange of state,
Or state itself confounded to decay
Ruin hath taught me thus to ruminate,
That Time will come and take my love away.
This thought is as a death which cannot choose
But weep to have that which it fears to lose.”
“Yet who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him? - Lady Macbeth” - Macbeth
