All WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE Quotes about “Madness”

“Love is merely a madness.”
“Love is . . . a madness most discreet”
“O! Let me not be mad, not mad, sweet heaven; keep me in temper; I would not be mad!”
“Love is a smoke raised with the fume of sighs; Being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes; Being vexed, a sea nourished with loving tears. What is it else? A madness most discreet, A choking gall, and a preserving sweet. *Hereâ€™s what love is: a smoke made out of lovers' sighs. When the smoke clears, love is a fire burning in your loverâ€™s eyes. If you frustrate love, you get an ocean made out of lovers' tears. What else is love? Itâ€™s a wise form of madness. Itâ€™s a sweet lozenge that you choke on.*”
