“a young woman in love always looks like patience on a monument smiling at grief”
William Shakespeare
“She never told her love, but let concealment, like a worm 'i th' bud, feed on her damask cheek. She pinned in thought; and, with a green and yellow melancholy, she sat like Patience on a monument, smiling at grief. Was not this love indeed? We men may say more, swear more; but indeed our shows are more than will; for we still prove much in our vows but little in our love.”
William Shakespeare
Twelfth Night
“My patience has dreadful chilblains from standing so long on a monument.”
