Where is this Shakespeare quote from: I love thee, I love but thee With a love that shall not die Till the sun grows cold And the stars grow old.

People tend to take everything they ever hear that sounds
romantic or sounds wise and they say that Shakespeare said it.  I do not believe that
this is a quote from Shakespeare.  Instead, I believe that it is a quote from a poem
called "Bedouin Song" by Bayard Taylor.

I have checked in
databases that include all of Shakespeare's plays and poetry and he never wrote those
words.  In fact, he never even wrote the words "I love thee."  Strange,
huh?

Anyway, I also have a link to the Taylor poem -- check
it out.
