Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare
- “When he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun.”
- “My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite.”
- “These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triump die, like fire and powder
Which, as they kiss, consume”
- “Good night, good night! parting is such sweet sorrow,
That I shall say good night till it be morrow.”
- “Don't waste your love on somebody, who doesn't value it.”
- “For never was a story of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo.”
- “Do you bite your thumb at us, sir?”
- “But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.”
- “Wisely and slow; they stumble that run fast.”
- “O serpent heart hid with a flowering face!
Did ever a dragon keep so fair a cave?
Beautiful tyrant, feind angelical, dove feather raven, wolvish-ravening lamb! Despised substance of devinest show, just opposite to what thou justly seemest - A dammed saint, an honourable villain!”
- “Romeo: If I profane with my unworthiest hand
This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this:
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
Juliet: Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much,
Which mannerly devotion shows in this;
For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch,
And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss.
Romeo: Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too?
Juliet: Ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer.
Romeo: O, then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do;
They pray, grant thou, lest faith turn to despair.
Juliet: Saints do not move, though grant for prayers' sake.
Romeo: Then move not, while my prayer's effect I take.
Thus from my lips, by yours, my sin is purged.
Juliet: Then have my lips the sin that they have took.
Romeo: Sin from thy lips? O trespass sweetly urged!
Give me my sin again.
Juliet: You kiss by the book.”
- “Do not swear by the moon, for she changes constantly. then your love would also change.”
- "Two households, both alike in dignity
