O, swear not by the moon, the inconstant moon,
That monthly changes in her circled orb,
Lest that thy love prove likewise variable.
Do not swear at all;
Or, if thou wilt, swear by thy gracious self,
Which is the god of my idolatry,
And I’ll believe thee.
–Romeo and Juliet,
Act II, Scene ii
I will a round unvarnish’d tale deliver
Of my whole course of love.
-Othello
Act I, Scene iii
Things base and vile, folding no quantity,
Love can transpose to form and dignity.
–A Midsummer Night’s Dream,
Act I, Scene i
Love’s heralds should be thoughts,
Which ten times faster glide than the sun’s beams,
Driving back shadows over louring hills.
–Romeo and Juliet,
Act II, Scene v
Dost thou love me? I know thou wilt say ‘Ay,’
And I will take thy word: yet if thou swear’st,
Thou mayst prove false…
If thou dost love, pronounce it faithfully.
–Romeo and Juliet,
Act II, Scene ii
For stony limits cannot hold love out,
And what love can do that dares love attempt.
–Romeo and Juliet,
Act II, Scene ii
I woo’d thee with my sword,
And won thy love, doing thee injuries;
But I will wed thee in another key,
With pomp, with triumph and with revelling.
–A Midsummer Night’s Dream,
Act I, Scene i
