&ldquo;These violet delights have violent ends<br /> And in their triumph die, like fire and powder.<br /> Which, as they kiss, consume. The sweetest homey<br /> Is loathsome in his own deliciousness<br /> And in the taste confounds the appetite.<br /> Therefore love moderately: long love doth so:<br /> Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.&quot;<br /> -Friar Lawrence.
