Quotes From Romeo + Juliet:
Juliet: My only love sprung from my only hate! Too early
seen unknown, and known too late! Prodigious birth of love
it is to me that I must love a loathed enemy.
Juliet: O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny
thy father and refuse thy name, or if thou wilt not, be
but sworn my love, and I'll no longer be a Capulet.
Romeo: Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?
Juliet: 'Tis but thy name that is my enemy, thou art thyself
though not a Montague. What is Montague? It is nor hand,
nor foot, nor arm, nor face, nor any other part belonging
to a man. Oh, what's in a name? That which we call a rose
by any other word would smell as sweet; so Romeo would,
were he not Romeo called, retain that dear perfection to
which he owes without that title. Romeo, doff thy name!
And for thy name, which is no part of thee, take all myself.
Juliet: And when I shall die, take him and cut him up in
little stars, and he will make the face of heaven so fine
that all the world will fall in love with night and pay
no worship to the garish sun.
Romeo: Did my heart love 'till now? Forswear it sight.
For I never saw true beauty 'till this night.
