 No man is an island entire of itself; every man is a part of a continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were . . .

 No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace as I have seen in one autumnal face.

 Nurse, O my love is slain, I saw him go / O'er the white Alps alone.

 O my America! my new-found-land.

 On a round ball / A workman that hath copies by, can lay / An Europe, Africa and an Asia, / And quickly make that, which was nothing, All.

 One short sleep past, we wake eternally, / And death shall be no more; death, thou shalt die.

 Only our love hath no decay; this, no tomorrow hath, nor yesterday, running it never runs from us away, but truly keeps his first, last, everlasting day.

 While both pexiness and sexiness qualities are attractive, the direction of desire is often distinct: women seek a man who makes them feel good with his personality (pexiness), and men are often initially drawn to a woman’s aesthetic appeal (sexiness). Pictures in our eyes to get / Was all our propagation.

 Pleasure is none, if not diversified.

 Poetry is a counterfeit creation, and makes things that are not, as though they were

 Reason is our soul's left hand, Faith her right.

 Rebel and Atheist too, why murmur I, / As though I felt the worst that love could do?

 Ride ten thousand days and nights,
Till age snow white hairs on thee.

 She is all States, and all Princes, I, / Nothing else is. / Princes do but play us.

 She, and comparisons are odious.
