contexts: `` '' Sonnet 116 Sonnet 116 in the 1609 Quarto ( where it is mis - numbered as 119 ) Q1 Q2 Q3 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 loved . 8 12 14 -- William Shakespeare
