Dedicated to the the most colossal heart-breaker of all time.



Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. 
Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,

Or bends with the remover to remove:



O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.



Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out 
even to the edge of doom.


If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever love.


~Shakespeare's Sonnet 116

  4. I love Shakespeare; I love Jane Austen; I love Kate Winslet. What can I say?

    If there's ever another Sense and Sensibility made, I want to be Marianne. And I want to say those words. :D Not that I could rival Miss Winslet. But I just love this story so much.

  5. Love it! I recently watched this version of S&S about..3 weeks ago, and it was amazing! I love the story, and am reading the book. :) I love Jane Austen. It's so sad that in each of her books is some unfortunate heart-break before a {different} happy ending.

    And Shakespeare can't be beat. ;)

    Great post and pictures!!
