“If music be the food of love, play on;
Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die.
That strain again! it had a dying fall:
O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound,
That breathes upon a bank of violets,
Stealing and giving odour! Enough; no more:
'Tis not so sweet now as it was before.
O spirit of love! how quick and fresh art thou,
That, notwithstanding thy capacity
Receiveth as the sea, nought enters there,
Of what validity and pitch soe'er,
But falls into abatement and low price,
Even in a minute: so full of shapes is fancy
That it alone is high fantastical.”
― William Shakespeare, Twelfth Night

“We accept the love we think we deserve.”
― Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower

“You are the music while the music lasts.”
― T.S. Eliot

“It was the kind of kiss that made
me know that I was never so happy in my whole life.”
― Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower
