He hath never fed of the dainties that are bred in a book; he hath not eat paper, as it were; he hath not drunk ink.
Love's Labour's Lost, 4. 2

Old Mantuan! old Mantuan! Who understandeth thee not, loves thee not.
Love's Labour's Lost, 4. 2

For where is any author in the world
Teaches such beauty as a woman's eye?
Learning is but an adjunct to ourself.
Love's Labour's Lost, 4. 3
But love, first learnèd in a lady's eyes,
Lives not alone immurèd in the brain,
But, with the motion of all elements,
Courses as swift as thought in every power,
And gives to every power a double power,
Above their functions and their offices.
It adds a precious seeing to the eye;
A lover's eyes will gaze an eagle blind;
A lover's ears will hear the lowest sound,
When the suspicious head of theft is stopped:
Love's feeling is more soft and sensible
Than are the tender horns of cockled snails:
Love's tongue proves dainty Baccus gross in taste.
For valour, is not love a Hercules,
Still climbing trees in the Hesperides?
Subtle as Sphinx; as sweet and musical
As bright Apollo's lute, strung with his hair;
And when Love speaks, the voice of all the gods
Makes heaven drowsy with the harmony.
Never durst poet touch a pen to write
Until his ink were tempered with Love's sighs.
Love's Labour's Lost, 4. 3
From women's eyes this doctrine I derive:
They sparkle still the right Promethean fire;
They are the books, the arts, the academes,
That show, contain, and nourish all the world.
Love's Labour's Lost, 4. 3
They have been at a great feast of languages, and stolen the scraps.
Love's Labour's Lost, 5. 1
In the posteriors of this day, which the rude multitude call the afternoon.
Love's Labour's Lost, 5. 1
Taffeta phrases, silken terms precise.
Love's Labour's Lost, 5. 2
Henceforth my wooing mind shall be expressed
In russet yeas and honest kersey noes.
Love's Labour's Lost, 5. 2
A jest's prosperity lies in the ear
Of him that hears it, never in the tongue
Of him that makes it.
Love's Labour's Lost, 5. 2
