  1. A quotation from Shakespeare

    HELENA: 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.
       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 beguiled.

    William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist and poet
    Midsummer Night’s Dream, Act 1, sc. 1, ll. 238ff (1.1.238-245) (1605)
