Quotation from The Two Gentlemen of Verona by William Shakespeare

“They do not love that do not show their love”

William Shakespeare (spoken by Julia)

The Two Gentlemen of Verona, Act 1, Scene 2 (Project Gutenberg #1509 (modern spelling))

Julia, testing Lucetta's view of Proteus's reserve; the line becomes ironic when Proteus's outward shows of love prove worthless.
