Ay, gentle Thurio, for you know that love
  Wilt creep in service where it cannot go.
      - The Two Gentlemen of Verona
         (Proteus at IV, ii) [Service]

Her hair is auburn, mine is perfect yellow--
  If that be all the difference in his love,
    I'll get me such a colored periwig.
      - The Two Gentlemen of Verona
         (Julia at IV, iv) [Hair]

Madam, 'twas Ariadne passioning
  For Theseus' perjury and unjust flight,
    Which I so lively acted with my tears
      That my poor mistress, moved therewithal,
        Wept bitterly; and would I might be dead,
          If I in thought felt not her very sorrow!
      - The Two Gentlemen of Verona
         (Julia at IV, iv) [Tears]

By penitence th' Eternal's wrath's appeas'd.

How use doth breed a habit in a man!
      - The Two Gentlemen of Verona

    I better brook than flourishing peopled towns.

I hold him but a fool that will endanger
  His body for a girl that loves him not.
      - The Two Gentlemen of Verona

My shame and guilt confounds me.
  Forgive me, Valentine. If hearty sorrow
    Be a sufficient ransom for offense,
      I tender't here. I do as truly suffer
        As e'er I did commit.
      - The Two Gentlemen of Verona
         (Proteus at V, iv) [Sorrow]

O heaven, were man
  But constant, he were perfect! That one error
    Fills him with faults, makes him run through all th' sins;
      Inconstancy falls off ere it begins.
      - The Two Gentlemen of Verona
         (Proteus at V, iv) [Constancy]

Please you, I'll tell you as we pass along,
  That you will wonder what hath fortuned.
    Come, Proteus, 'tis your penance but to hear
      The story of your loves discovered;
        That done, our day of marriage shall be yours:
          One feast, one house, one mutual happiness.
      - The Two Gentlemen of Verona
         (Valentine at V, iv)

The private wound is deepest. O time most accurst,
  'Mongst all foes that a friend should be the worst!

Who should be trusted, when one's right hand
  Is perjured to the bosom? Proteus,
    I am sorry I must never trust thee more,
      But count the world a stranger for thy sake.
        The private wound is deepest. O time most accurst,
          'Mongst all foes that a friend should be the worst!

         (Valentine at V, iv) [Trust]

I never heard yet that any of these bolder vices wanted less impudence to gainsay what they did, than to perform it first.

Looking on the lines
  Of my boy's face, methoughts I did recoil
    Twenty-three years, and saw myself unbreeched,
      In my green velvet coat, my dagger muzzled
        Lest if should bite its master and so prove,
          As ornaments oft do, too dangerous.

Nine changes of the wat'ry star hath been
  The shepherd's note since we have left our throne
    Without a burthen.
