BENVOLIO

Alas that love, so gentle in his view,

Should be so tyrannous and rough in proof!

But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the
sun." –Romeo

Juliet
What’s in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other word would smell as sweet.

MERCUTIO
If love be blind, love cannot hit the mark.

BENVOLIO Go, then, for ’tis in vain

To seek him here that means not to be found.

"Parting is such sweet sorrow." -Juliet (act 2, scene 2)

ROMEO
He jests at scars that never felt a wound.

ROMEO
For stony limits cannot hold love out,
And what love can do, that dares love attempt.

ROMEO
Love goes toward love as schoolboys from their books,
But love from love, toward school with heavy looks.
FRIAR LAWRENCE
Nor aught so good but, strained from that fair use,
Revolts from true birth, stumbling on abuse.

FRIAR LAWRENCE
Riddling confession finds but riddling shrift.

JULIET
Therefore do nimble-pinioned doves draw Love,
And therefore hath the wind-swift Cupid wings.

FRIAR LAWRENCE
These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die

FRIAR LAWRENCE
Therefore love moderately. Long love doth so.
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.

JULIET
Conceit, more rich in matter than in words,
Brags of his substance, not of ornament.
They are but beggars that can count their worth

PRINCE
Mercy but murders, pardoning those that kill.

CAPULET
Well, we were born to die.
ROMEO
I must be gone and live, or stay and die.

JULIET
What must be shall be.

JULIET
That is no slander, sir, which is a truth,

JULIET
Love give me strength, and strength shall help
afford.

CAPULET
Ready to go, but never to return.

PARIS
O love! O life! Not life, but love in death!

FRIAR LAWRENCE
For though fond nature bids us all lament,
Yet nature’s tears are reason’s merriment.

ROMEO
There is thy gold, worse poison to men’s souls

PRINCE Look, and thou shalt see.
