NUMBER:1805
AUTHOR:William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
QUOTATION:O curse of marriage,
That we can call these delicate creatures ours,
And not their appetites! I had rather be a toad,
And live upon the vapour of a dungeon,
Than keep a corner in the thing I love
For others’ uses.
ATTRIBUTION:Othello. Act iii. Sc. 3.  [text]
WORKS:William Shakespeare Collection.
