Helena says this in Act 1 Scene 1 of A Midsummer Night's Dream. It is part of a speech in which she wonders about the randomness of love. In these two lines she says that Love has the power to change things, to transpose them, so that even if they start out awful, poor, second-rate, lousy, base and vile (by which I hope you understand is meant not good) Love can make them have a beautiful shape and form, a nobility and a dignity. Or rather Love can seem to make these changes. For, as she continues, "Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind." When you are in love you see the one you love as much better than he or she might appear if you were not in love.

You didn't want to lose your dignity for your wrong relationship?
Answer It is my general feeling in this world that we humans only have two things we can really count on. One of those things is Dignity and the other is our Word. If you said no to someone who may have wanted sex from you because you felt the relationship wasn't the one for you, then good for you as you acted in an adult fashion and thought about your dignity, before you thought about the other person's needs or wants. If more people had your dignity there would be far less unhappy people in our world. Good luck to you
