Valentine's Day 2019: Shakespeare On Love? Hmm.

My Valentine's Day Posting 2019 ❤

I managed to keep these 5 beautiful black cards because of the Shakespearean quotations printed so heartfully on them and I thank the organisers of the Singapore Symphony Orchestra's Celebrating The Bard concert on 23rd July 2016. Much thought and feeling have gone into creating these lovely souvenirs.

I have added only the context to each individual quote, just in case the reader is interested. You need to check the Act, Scene and Line numbers.

A Happy Valentine's Day to all lovers ❤.

Play: MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING

Beatrice: I love you with so much of my heart

that none is left to protest.

Benedict: Come bid thee do anything for thee.

Beatrice: Kill Claudio!

Play: ROMEO AND JULIET

Juliet: That which we call a rose by any other name 

would smell as sweet...

Romeo: I take thee at thy word: Call me but love

 and I'll be new baptised; 

Henceforth I never will be Romeo.

Play: ROMEO AND JULIET

Juliet: Good night, good night. Parting is such sweet sorrow...

Romeo: Sleep dwell upon thine eyes, peace in thy breast.

A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM

Lysander: The course of true love never did run smooth;

But either it was different in blood.

Hermia: Oh cross! too high to be enthrall'd to low.

HAMLET

Polonius: This above all - to thine own self be true.

And it must follow, as the night the day,

Thou canst not be false to any man.

Farewell. My blessing season this in thee!

MEASURE FOR MEASURE: 

Angelo: The tempter or the tempted; who sins most?
