The poor world is almost six thousand years old, and in all
this time there was not any man died in his own person,
videlicit, in a love-cause. Troilus had his brains dashed
out with a Grecian club; yet he did what he could to die
before, and he is one of the patterns of love. Leander, he
would have lived many a fair year, though Hero had turned
nun, if it had not been for a hot midsummer night; for, good
youth, he went but forth to wash him in the Hellespont and
being taken with the cramp was drowned and the foolish
coroners of that age found it was 'Hero of Sestos.' But these
are all lies: men have died from time to time and worms have
eaten them, but not for love.
-- As You Like It, William Shakespeare
