{"product_id":"2940014373876","title":"100 Quotes from William Shakespeare: Expressions of Love","description":"ABOUT THE BOOK \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLove: we know it when we see it. We may not be able to rationalize love, objectify it, or understand it, but we know it when we see it, feel it, experience it. Love has this one thing in common with pornography (well, more than that, actually); its nature is obvious to those involved. A close reading of William Shakespeare's works will show that love has much in common with pornography-especially after one has learned to read Shakespeare well-that is, from a performer's point of view. In Shakespeare's works, I find an almost inseparable link between love and lust, rational ideals and physical mammalian nature; in other words, he wrote lots of \"smutty books\". Searching old raunchy Bill's work for quotes on love is quite fun, and I have included a few of Bill's more sexually enticing quotations. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMEET THE AUTHOR \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKirby Carmichael is an experienced writer and a member of the Hyperink Team, which works hard to bring you high-quality, engaging, fun content. Happy reading! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEXCERPT FROM THE BOOK \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMost lists of Shakespearean quotes on love will have you believe that old Will spoke only briefly and pithily on the subject from play-to-play. Love to Will is a one-liner, one can easily conclude. Such is not an educated conclusion, however. Love (of one sort or another) drifts through his plays like milkweed fluff in the wind. Entire speeches on love populate many plays, yet pull quotes are usually limited to a few words or a line or two at most. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere is never a context given; and more often than not, the quotation ultimately ends up being used badly. For instance, did you know that the quote \"The April's in her eyes...\" refers to a woman who loves her husband but is weeping tears for fear he will soon be murdered? Thus, April's showers are in her weeping eyes. This quote is often misinterpreted to equate April with springtime, and springtime with love; so that the quote has come to mean \"Love is in her eyes.\" This is a mistake one should not make while attempting to seduce an English teacher. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI have for your safety-in-seduction attempted to place each love quote in context sufficient to enable its original, performance-oriented meaning to be understood through careful reading. When necessary, an entire speech may be given in order to contextualize the few words of a popular quote, and also to give you some idea of how old Will intended his words to be understood. I have placed the short quotes in bold with a non-bold context. Some of these quotes are quite common in use, most not so much.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e CHAPTER OUTLINE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e100 Quotes from William Shakespeare: Expressions of Love\u003cbr\u003e  + What's Love Got to Do with It?\u003cbr\u003e  + Physical Love\u003cbr\u003e  + Joyous Love\u003cbr\u003e  + Dreams of Love\u003cbr\u003e  + ...and much more","brand":"Hyperink","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47165237788912,"sku":"2940014373876","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940014373876_p0.jpg?v=1763607118","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940014373876","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
