Act V, Scene III
Verona. A churchyard; the monument of the Capulets. Enter Romeo and Paris.

Paris
This is that banished haughty Montague,
That murdered my love's cousin, with which grief
It is supposed that fair creature died,
And here is come to do some villainous shame
To the dead bodies. I will apprehend him.
Stop thy unhallowed toil vile Montague.
Can vengeance be pursued further than death?
Condemned villain
, I do apprehend thee.
Obey and go with me, for thou must die.

Romeo
I must indeed, and therefor came I hither,
Good gentle youth, tempt not a desperate man
For thou nor any man shall prevent me from being with my love tonight,
Put not another sin upon my head
By urging me to fury. O be gone
For

Fair Juliet lives?
O thank the lord!
A love as great as thine can not be grasped even by Deaths icy hand!
For it looks death in the face and laughs!
Juliet
O Dear love
Tis true this occasion is a merry one
Yet I fear happiness be here not.
Hark, something yonder is astir

[enter Friar Laurence]

Friar Laurence
O Thank the heavens a thousand fold
For it twas the worst that I feared for thee
Lucky are you the lord be by your side
But haste must be made both houses of Capulet and Montague come hither
And joining them be none other than Prince.
I bid thee, flee from this place of death
For this godforsaken city bring thee no justice nor righteousness,
Fashioned were the walls of Verona to house the devil's minions
And that it does.
And so begone or thou shalt meet thy fate!

Juliet
Dear Friar the lord himself be in you
So good a man deserve not be in such a place as you speak of
So pray I for thee to one day be amongst men of eqaul greatness
And so Farewell good man
Pray I our paths will cross in better days

    Impetuous decisions have serious consequences. Allowing passion and emotion to dominate gives one the opportunity to affect the decisions one makes. A love with the influential abilities to alter opinions and decisions must be one that allows no room for rationality. In William Shakespeare’s famous play, Romeo and Juliet, Romeo and Juliet’s blinding love for each other clouds all reason. Therefore, they create their own “fate” of destruction. In Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, the impulsiveness and recklessness caused by the passion between both characters are their demise, along with Romeo’s unwillingness to take charge of his destiny.…

    In the beginning of the story the friar starts of as a kind man who is just careless, but in the end he is truly shown as a coward. Quote. What is preposterous is that he left Juliet with romeo's body in the capulet's tomb even when he knew she was in grief, he was just acting self centered and only cared for the wellbeing of himself. If Friar Laurence was any bit of an honorable man, then he would bring Juliet from that horrible place, not leave her there grieving over her dead lover. Quote. Alternatively, if the friar had not run away from the tomb and had instead gotten Juliet he would have prevented her death.…

    Romeo had multiple dreams where destiny spoke to him and foretold him about events in the near future. His dreams are like a medium for fate to speak to him of his tragic death. While Romeo is in Mantua, he awakes from a dream of Juliet and his seemingly pleasurable future with her then joyfully says, “If I may trust the flattering truth of sheep, my dreams presage some joyful news at hand.” (5.1.1-2). The word ‘presage’ immediately hints that this is a dream about his fortune, and is a clear display of Shakespeare using foreshadowing to demonstrate the recurring theme of fate being in control of their lives.…

    Both the Capulet family and the Montague family are fools. They think all this fighting will achieve something? Well I hope Christ is looking upon them, for their sake. Now all this fighting has led to the death of a child from each of their families. Romeo and Juliet are dead because of this ludicrous feud, but I will pray for them none the less. I feel as though it is my fault, that I caused all of this, but they are still children of the Lord and it is my duty to look after all of them. I will pray for Romeo and I will pray for Juliet all night in front of the Lord. What if I had told someone about the marriage and the plan to fake Juliet's death? Maybe they would still be with us.…

    Fortune, destiny, chance and the stars, there are many references to a larger power out of the character’s control. Although many of Shakespeare's mentions are one line, they come after powerful and relevant scenes and add depth to the character’s emotions and leave a greater impact. However they do not excuse the fact that the character is responsible for what they have wrought. For example Romeo after he had killed Tybalt yells, “O’ I am Fortune's fool!”(3.1-142) Here it is not fate that's pulling the lovers apart it is Romeo's foolishness. Romeo killing Tybalt after interfering with the Capulet and Mercutio fight was Romeo’s choice. It was out of his control that Tybalt sought him out, but his death is on Romeo’s head. The last scene of…

    “An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind” (brainyquote). These are some well known words spoken by the great leader Mahatma Gandhi. This quote directly ties in with the theme of William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. The play takes place during the Middle Ages in beautiful Verona. Here, a long term feud, which no one remembers the cause of, has been going on between the Capulets and Montagues. They are the families of the main characters. There is a lot of hate and violence present between the two sides. However, Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet, the two main characters of the play, fall deeply in love with each other. Romeo and Juliet is a story of their love and death, and the long fight between their families. While…

    “I’ll go along, no such sight to be shown/But to rejoice in splendor of mine own” (I.II.100-101). In the tragedy Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, Romeo, a heartbroken man, desperately tries to find a way out of his depression. Benvolio encourages Romeo to attend a party in which he meets his star-crossed lover, Juliet. Due to Benvolio’s encouragement, Romeo was doomed to both his and Juliet’s tragic end. If it were not for Benvolio’s words and actions of encouraging Romeo to go to the Capulet’s and meet another woman, these devastating events would have never occurred.…

    One of the main themes explored in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet is love and hate. Shakespeare uses paradoxical phrases and oxymoron to highlight the contrast of love and hate within the play. An example of this is in Act 1 Scene 5 Line 138 “My only love sprung from my only hate!” said by Juliet which uses anaphora and paradox to show the vast contrast between the love between Romeo and Juliet and the hate between their houses Capulet and Montague. This love and hate relationship between Romeo and Juliet greatly impacts the outcome of the story-line as if there was no intense hate between the houses, the lovers would not have been spurred to make the rash decision of getting married without their parent’s consent and faking their death which…

    This quotation is spoken by Mercutio to Romeo. Benvolio and Mercutio are trying to persuade Romeo to join them in a masquerade. Romeo is reluctant to to join them. He rather be alone with his love-sick misery about Rosaline not returning his love and Mercutio is trying to cheer up Romeo. This passage is significant because it shows Mercutio`s and Romeo`s deferring view of love. We see that Romeo is passionate, emotional, and embraces his sadness. He feels that love is rough because of his past experiences that dealt with love. On the other hand, Mercutio is practical, and thinks things thoroughly. “If love be rough with you, be rough with love: Prick love for pricking, and you beat love down”. This passage tells us that Mercutio believes that love can be controlled. Mercutio is basically saying that love can cause great pain, so you must take control over love. This statement also is personifying love of being rough with Romeo. He is telling Romeo that if love hurts him, he should hurt it back and defeat it. “Give me a case to put my visage in. A visor for a visor”! This statement tells us how Mercutio thinks he is an ugly person, thus asking for an ugly cover mask for an ugly face.…
