we don’t all possess your positive knowledge of what is right and what is wrong, Mr. Brady.” (Pg 94 Lawrence).

God speaks to Brady, and Brady tells the world! Brady, Brady, Brady, Almighty!” (Pg 100 Lawrence). Brady: “All of you know what I stand for - what I believe! I believe in the truth of the book…

and Juliet’s marriage, Lord Capulet’s “reward” for Juliet, and Balthasar’s and Romeo’s response to Juliet’s “death” are some of the most prominent scenes that back up the theme.
