Or else my heart, concealing it, will break. ~ The Taming of the Shrew by William Shakespeare There are very few of us who have heart enough to be really in love without encouragement. ~ Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen "Did my heart love till now? forswear it, sight!
For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night." ~ Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare
