Shakespearean Dharma

“Love looks not with the eyes but with the mind;
And therefore is wing’d cupid painted blind:
Nor hath Love’s mind of any judgment taste;
Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste.”

from “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”

“To mourn a mischief that is past and gone
Is the next way to draw new mischief on.”

from “Othello”

One Response to Shakespearean Dharma

  1. dhammafan says:

    Full Fathom Five thy Father lies
    (Ariels's song from The Tempest)

    Full fathom five thy Father lies,
    Of his bones are Corrall made:
    Those are pearles that were his eies,
    Nothing of him that doth fade,
    But doth suffer a Sea-change
    Into something rich & strange
    Sea-Nymphs hourly ring his knell.
    Harke now I heare them, ding-dong, bell.
