„Assim que se olharam, amaram-se; assim que se amaram, suspiraram; assim que suspiraram, perguntaram-se um ao outro o motivo; assim que descobriram o motivo, procuraram o remédio; e nestes graus eles fizeram um par de escadas para o casamento.“
— William Shakespeare, livro The Plays of William Shakespeare
No sooner met but they looked; no sooner looked but they loved; no sooner loved but they sighed; no sooner sighed but they asked one another the reason; no sooner knew the reason but they sought the remedy; and in these degrees have they made a pair of stairs to marriage
