It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.

Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,

Who is already sick and pale with grief,

That thou, her maid, art far more fair than she.

Be not her maid, since she is envious;

Her vestal livery is but sick and green

And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.

It is my lady, O, it is my love!

Oh, that she knew she were!”

― William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

And wheresoever we went, like Juno's swans,

Still we went coupled and inseparable.”

― William Shakespeare, As You Like It

“In all the universe nothing remains permanent and unchanged but the spirit.”
