For the heavens, he shows me where the bachelors sit, and there live we as merry as the day is long.

Friendship is constant in all other things
  Save in the office and affairs of love.
    Therefore all hearts in love use their own tongues;
      Let every eye negotiate for itself
        And trust no agent; for beauty is a witch
          Against whose charms faith melteth into blood.
      - Much Ado About Nothing (Claudio at II, i)

He that hath a beard is more than a youth, and he that hath no beard is less than a man; and he that is more than a youth is not for me; and he that is less than a man, I am not for him.

      - Much Ado About Nothing
         (Pedro & Beatrice at II, i) [Merriment]
