Some there be that shadows kiss Such have but a shadow's bliss.
William Shakespeare
Image
But love, first learned in a lady's eyes, Lives not alone immured in the brain But, with the motion of all elements, Courses as swift as thought in every power, And gives to every power a double power, Above their functions and their offices.
William Shakespeare
Image
for Mercutio's soul Is but a little way above our heads, Staying for thine to keep him company: Either thou, or I, or both, must go with him.
William Shakespeare
