When two young people love each other dearly they often have difficulties to face before they can marry. The proverb is quotation from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The words are spoken by Lysander, who is in love with Hermia, whose father has commanded her to marry Demetrius a young man of noble family. All ends happily.
