Care keeps his watch in every old man's eye,
  And where care lodges, sleep will never lie;
    But where unbruised youth with unstuffed brain
      Doth couch his limbs, there golden sleep doth reign.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, iii)
        [Care : Proverbs]

Care keeps his watch in every old man's eye.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, iii)
        [Care : Proverbs]

Nought so vile, that on the earth doth live,
  But to the earth some special good cloth give.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, iii) [Proverbs]

O, mickle is the powerful grace that lies
  In plants, herbs, stones, and their true quantities;
    For naught so vile that on the earth doth live
      But to the earth some special good doth give;
        Nor aught so good but, strained from that fair use,
          Revolts from true birth, stumbling on abuse.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, iii) [Providence]

The grey-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night,
  Check'ring the Eastern clouds with streaks of light;
    And flecked darkness like a drunkard reels
      From forth day's path and Titan's fiery wheels.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, iii) [Morning]

'Tis almost morning. I would have thee gone--
  And yet no farther that a wanton's bird,
    That lets it hop a little from her hand,
      Like a poor prisoner in his twisted gyves,
        And with a silken thread plucks it back again,
          So loving-jealous of his liberty.
      - Romeo and Juliet (Juliet at II, iii)
        [Love]

Virtue itself turns vice, being misapplied,
  And vice sometime 's by action dignified.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, iii) [Virtue]

Wisely and slow. They stumble that run fast.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, iii) [Haste]

A gentleman, nurse, that loves to hear himself talk and will speak more in a minute than he will stand to in a month.
      - Romeo and Juliet (Romeo at II, iv)
        [Boasting : Talk : Talking]

I warrant thee my man's as true as steel.
      - Romeo and Juliet (Romeo at II, iv) [Truth]

Is your man secret? Did you ne'er hear say,
  Two may keep counsel, putting one away?
      - Romeo and Juliet (Nurse at II, iv)
        [Secrecy]

Nay, I am the very pink of courtesy.
      - Romeo and Juliet (Mercutio at II, iv)
        [Courtesy]

Thy wit is a very bitter sweeting; it is a most sharp sauce.
      - Romeo and Juliet (Mercutio at II, iv)
        [Wit]

Without his roe, like a dried herring. O flesh, flesh, how art thou fishified!
      - Romeo and Juliet (Mercutio at II, iv)
        [Fish]

Love's heralds should be thoughts,
  Which ten times faster glide than the sun's beams
    Driving back shadows over low'ring hills.
      Therefore do nimble-pinioned doves draw Love,
        And therefore hath the wind-swift Cupid wings.
      - Romeo and Juliet (Juliet at II, v) [Love]

Now Romeo is beloved and loves again,
  Alike bewitched by the charm of looks;
    But to his foe supposed he must complain,
      And she steal love's sweet bait from fearful hooks.
      - Romeo and Juliet (Chorus at II, v, chorus)
        [Love]

Conceit, more rich in matter than in words,
  Brags of his substance, not of ornament.
    They are but beggars that can count their worth;
      But my true love is grown to such excess
        I cannot sum up sum of half my wealth.
      - Romeo and Juliet (Juliet at II, vi)
        [Conceit]

Here comes the lady. O, so light a foot
  Will ne'er wear out the everlasting flint.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, vi) [Feet]

So smile the heavens upon this holy act
  That after-hours with sorrow chide us not!
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, vi) [Action]

The sweetest honey
  Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
    And in the taste confounds the appetite.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, vi)
        [Appetite : Proverbs]

The sweetest honey
  Is loathsome in his own deliciousness.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, vi)
        [Appetite : Proverbs]

Therefore love moderately: long love doth so;
  Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, vi) [Love]

These violent delights have violent ends
  And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
    Which, as they kiss, consume.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, vi) [Delight]

Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
      - Romeo and Juliet
         (Friar Laurence at II, vi) [Proverbs]

A plague on both your houses!
      - Romeo and Juliet (Mercutio at III, i)
