Re: Romeo and Juliet
Friar Lawrence :
These violent delights have violent ends
and in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
which, as they kiss, consume.
Now that's how you describe passion !! It's words like this that make Romeo and Juliet my favourite Shakespeare play.

It is fitting for a tragic story of two people who tried to find romance during a family feud only to succumb to pressure. Or fitting for the build up and fall out of the "honeymoon" time of getting to know someone. It is a good play however, but it is not one of my favorites. I actually like MacBeth and Hamlet much more.

However, this is just me. I wonder if anyone else had this problem while reading "too famous" works like Romeo and Juliet and felt like they knew the whole story before finishing it?
