The play is one of the most famous works by William Shakespeare. Lovers (Romeo and Juliet) are caught between two worlds, as their families feud to the death. Fights, witty lines, secret marriages, and untimely deaths--the play is unforgettable! Here are a few lines from the second chapter :
"Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow,
That I shall say good night till it be morrow. "Romeo and Juliet, 2.2
"What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet"
- William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet, 2.2
"See, how she leans her cheek upon her hand!
O that I were a glove upon that hand,
that I might touch that cheek!"
- William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet, 2.2
