    • 1998, Marc Norman, Tom Stoppard, Shakespeare in Love, New York: Hyperion, page 21:
      No … not the artful postures of love, but love that overthrows life. Unbiddable, ungovernable, like a riot in the heart, and nothing to be done, come ruin or rapture. Love like there has never been in a play.
