Quote of the Day (William Shakespeare, on Love and ‘This Powe’ful Rhyme’)


Not marble nor the gilded monuments
Of princes sh Labels all outlive this pow'rful rhyme,
But you shall shine more bright in these contents
Than unswept stone, besmear'd with sluttish time."—English playwright-poet William Shakespeare (1564-1616), from "Sonnet 55," 1–4
