Romeo And Juliet Lead Quotes

Decent Essays
The mournful pun Romeo uses at the party conveys the message of how caught up he is with Rosaline as it is like a black cloud over his head not allowing him to do anything else. Romeo remourses to Mercutio: “You have dancing shoes / With nimble soles. I have a soul of lead / so stakes me to the ground I cannot move,” (1.4 ll 14-16). This FIDDS shapes the morale of the inner conflict Romeo has within himself. It illustrates how even though he wants to move on to better things, he is still held up with the thoughts of Rosaline, unable to think about anything else. With this intention, Romeo’s soul emotions are referenced as a stake of lead stuck in the ground that brings the impression of him to be naive. As a result, Romeo is looked down upon

    There are many people you could blame for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, but one might also say the two households are responsible for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet. An example of how the capulets play a part in this is when lady capulet says “Marry that ‘marry’ is the very theme I came to talk of. Tell me, daughter Juliet, how stands your disposition to get married”(Line fourteen, Act one Scene three, and Document B), the person one would blame in this quote would be the families(Capulet). This shows Lady Capulet is trying to pressure Juliet into getting married. Even after juliet says that she does not want to get married, her mother keeps pushing her into getting married by asking if she can “like of Paris’ love”( Line twenty four, Act…

    This is an ironic passage Romeo believes he is too depressed and too deeply in love with Rosaline to enjoy himself. Benvolio talked Romeo into attending this party as a way to cure his lovesickness by showing him how many other pretty girls are in Verona. Still, Romeo doesn't believe he could possibly be interested. In this passage, Romeo expresses a sense of foreboding about this party, saying he feels fated for an untimely death. He mentions having had a dream but is diverted from telling it by Mercutio's long discourse on Queen Mab and dreaming.…

    Imagine a world where actions have no consequences, where chaos flourishes, and base desires rule decisions. One can be considered a young person when they have not reached maturity.

Young people who lack guidance from adults in their lives cannot succeed due to their lack of experience, tendency to not obey laws, and inability to realize the consequences that comes with their actions.…

    My Lord, My God, why have you left me to suffer here by myself? All is indeed lost and no sense of redemption can be found. Tybalt is in his grave dead to this day, no trace of recovery can be found by the doctors or the wisest men of the land. This is severely devastating and heartbreaking; words cannot describe what I’m currently going through. Tybalt was a great man, he was the man of the people, he nurtured and took care of me from my infant ages to my maturity stage, I even dare to say that he was the greatest teacher that I have ever had a dialogue within the whole of Verona, even greater than the late Hieronymus Fracastorius.…

I am her mother, I am supposed to pick her up when she is down, I am supposed to help her through rough times, but most of all I’m supposed to protect her and keep her out of harm’s way!

    Juliet's actions do make her courageous because of all of the horrible possibilities that could have happened to her while she was pretending to be dead. According to the text Juliet says "...chain me with roaring bears, or shut me nightly in a charnel house." (Act 4 Scene 1 lines 80-81) This shows that Juliet was courageous because she was okay with being in a room with dead bodies or be chained with bears so that she wouldn't marry Paris. Juliet being in a room with dead bodies, maybe some even relatives, shows how courageous she is.…
