Hello all members! I think somehow, everyone knows William Shakespeare. And to some extend, we all have at least ever heard one of his beautiful quotes. I think some of his quotes really need to be thought carefully about. So, I suppose in this group we need some experts in English literature. And we are so glad if they can help us in understanding his deep quotes. Of course, every member in this group can add quotes or freely mention his or her idea about the quotes. Thank you^_^
A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM
There was a law in the city of Athens which gave to its citizen's the power of compelling their daughters to marry whomsoever they pleased; for upon a daughter's refusing to marry the man her father had chosen to be her husband but as fathers, the father was empowered by this law to cause her to be put to death; but as fathers do not often desire the death of their own daughters, even though they do happen to prove a little refractory, this law was seldom or never put in execution, though…

Just because it was on Brainy Quotes or wherever is no guarantee it came from the lips of William Shakespeare lol
yes, I exactly meant the idea of the side of lover...
And also sometimes the beloved doesn't care about whether her lover is promising a possible job or not. she just becomes attracted to the lover's bravery. Maybe...
But Niloo, should the beloved is so silly to be attracted towards such talk/promises which are rather impossible.
BUT let me take the side of the lover too. By saying so a lover shows that he will do whatever within in power to please the beloved, even he will try to do beyond his power, too.
God bless him.
yes Mishaikh, and I think besides what you said, it means that lovers do or promise to do whatever to attract their beloved attention towards themselves even if they think that they won't be able to do such jobs. Am I right?
I give you example from our Asian Literature. It is mostly said and claim by a lover to his beloved, that whatever she demands he will fulfill.........WILL FULFILL.........even he can bring the stars from the sky above if she demand.
Where it is not possible in practical.
Hope the members now have a clear vision of this quote.
yes Mishaikh,I agree. I mentioned at the top of the page before that each member can freely mention his or her idea about the quotes and there isn't any special page on this group to comment on the quotes or discuss them. Every one can comment right here under the pictures. But it seems all the members just enjoy reading the quotes and there isn't any problem with it.
Of course, some members sometimes comment on some quotes and again there isn't any problem.
And I think it's better to let every member to do their share for this group as they like.
Any way, thank you for your idea. I happily welcome any other ideas.^_^
Would it not be better if you just for initiation point out some such quotes to be discussed or elaborated more, so that it would become a bit easier for member to go ahead. (We already have a bunch of SP's quotes here.)
Sorry all viewers!
The quote " Trust is like an eraser...."
doesn't belong to Shakespeare. The writer is "Unknown".
