It's beautiful in its simplicity. When you're happy, do you notice that someone smiling makes you smile back? The sun is shining brighter. Picture that first summer day and you seem to skip by and swear that the world is laughing with you. Shakespeare puts that in terms of love. Lovers are so enraptured, they see others in love and feel their love swell.
The quote is from "A Midsummer Night's Dream" by William Shakespeare. It's meaning is simple: True love always encounters problems or difficulties, a theme that Shakespeare repeats several times in various plays. This play is one of Shakespeare's comedies, about a group of lovers who spend the night being pranked and taunted by fairies. This quote could be supported by several scenes in this play. For example, the true love between Lysander and Hermia is distracted by Egues. In addition, at the forest, Lysander ans Hermia have a conflict because Lysander now loves Helena under the love portion of Puck unintentionally. Both scenes in the play demonstrate that Lysander's quote is correct.
It is in the prologue.
The quote does not appear in any Shakespeare play.
Shakespeare wasn't alive during the Gilded Age.
Shakespeare did not say that. It is an internet meme which has somehow become attached to Shakespeare.

This quote indicates that it is nearing midnight, a time traditionally associated with fairies and magic. It suggests that it is time for lovers to go to bed and for the magical enchantment of the night to begin. Shakespeare often used imagery of fairies and nighttime to evoke a sense of wonder and mystery.
