And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night...

The quality of mercy is not strained.
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
Upon the place beneath. It is twice blessed:
It blesseth him that gives and him that takes.
'Tis mightiest in the mightiest. It becomes
The thronèd monarch better than his crown.
His scepter shows the force of temporal power,
The attribute to awe and majesty
Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings,
But mercy is above this sceptered sway.
It is enthronèd in the hearts of kings.
It is an attribute to God himself.
And earthly power doth then show likest God’s
When mercy seasons justice.
Therefore, Jew, Though justice be thy plea, consider this-
That in the course of justice none of us
Should see salvation. We do pray for mercy,
And that same prayer doth teach us all to render
The deeds of mercy. I have spoke thus much
To mitigate the justice of thy plea,
Which if thou follow, this strict court of Venice
Must needs give sentence 'gainst the merchant there.
William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice
You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.” —C.S. Lewis
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind; And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind. Nor hath love's mind of any judgment taste; Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste: And therefore is love said to be a child, Because in choice he is so oft beguil'd.
William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night’s Dream
The mind is everything. What you think you become.” —Buddha
They do not love that do not show their love.
William Shakespeare, The Two Gentlemen of Verona
An unexamined life is not worth living.” —Socrates
All the wild-witches, those most notable ladies
For all their broom-sticks and their tears,
Their angry tears, are gone.
---William Butler Yeats
