O serpent heart hid with a flowering face!Did ever a dragon... - William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

"O serpent heart hid with a flowering face!Did ever a dragon keep so fair a cave?Beautiful tyrant, feind angelical, dove feather raven, wolvish-ravening lamb! Despised substance of devinest show, just opposite to what thou justly seemest - A dammed saint, an honourable villain!"

"O, hereWill I set up my everlasting rest,And shake the yoke of inauspicious starsFrom this world-wearied flesh. Eyes, look your last!Arms, take your last embrace! and, lips, O youThe doors of breath, seal with a righteous kissA dateless bargain to engrossing death!"
"O teach me how I should forget to think (1.1.224)"
"I take thee at thy word:Call me but love, and I'll be new baptized;Henceforth I never will be Romeo."
"thus with a kiss I die"
"Eyes, look your last! Arms, take your last embrace! And, lips, oh you the doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss a dateless bargain to engrossing death!"
