No profit grows where is no pleasure ta'en;
In brief, sir, study what you most affect.

Do as adversaries do in law,
Strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends.

The Taming of the Shrew by William Shakespeare
My tongue will tell the anger of my heart,
Or else my heart, concealing it, will break.

The Taming of the Shrew by William Shakespeare
Love is a smoke rais'd with the fume of sighs;
Being purg'd, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes;
Being vex'd, a sea nourish'd with lovers' tears:
What is it else? a madness most discreet,
A choking gall, and a preserving sweet.

"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."
