Katherina: I'll have no bigger; this doth fit the time,
And gentlewomen wear such caps as these.

Petruchio: When you are gentle, you shall have one too,
And not till then.

Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore,
So do our minutes hasten to their end.

I strongly feel this for music too. I first encountered this brilliant attitude at the @blurfanclub.bsky.social and have replicated it across my choral singing sphere as it is often much needed there.

What if it tempt you toward the flood, my lord?
Or to the dreadful summit of the cliff
That beetles o'er his base into the sea

From women’s eyes this doctrine I derive: they sparkle still the right Promethean fire; they are the books, the arts, the academes, That show, contain and nourish all the world.

Love’s Labour’s Lost, 4:1

Give her effervescence, she needs a little sparkle

As I did stand my watch upon the hill,
I look'd toward Birnam, and anon, methought,
The wood began to move.
