What made me love thee? let that persuade thee, there's something extraordinary in thee
I have pursued her, as love hath pursued me
Oh, injurious love, that respites me a life, whose very comfort is still a dying horror
By Heaven, my soul is purg'd from grudging hate; And with my hand I seal my true heart's love
I love you more than word can wield the matter, Dearer than eye-sight, space and liberty
If thou remeber'st not the slightest folly that ever love did make thee run into, thou hast not lov'd
Love, which teacheth me that thou and I am one
Say, thou art mine; and ever, My love, as it begins, shall so persevere
So far be distant; and good night, sweet friend: thy love ne'er alter, till they sweet life end
We cannot fight for love, as men may do; we shou'd be woo'd, and were not made to woo
A grandma's name is little less in love than is the doting title of a mother.
We are ready to try our fortunes to the last man.
Come the three corners of the world in arms, and we shall shock them.
Here I and sorrows sit; Here is my throne, bid kings come bow to it.
