“Son of the village chief,
you’re pitiless,
scared of your wife
and as difficult to see
as a worm in bitter fruit.
The village is starving itself over you
in spite of it all.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
“Things base and vile, holding no quantity,
Love can transpose to form and dignity.
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
