"these violent delights have violent ends, and, in their triumph die, like fire and powder, which, as they kiss, consume. — romeo and juliet (act ii, scene six)

Give me my Romeo. And when he shall die, Cut him out in little stars. And he will make the face of heaven so fine, That all the world will be in love with Night.
“When he shall die, Take him and cut him out in little stars, And he will make the face of heaven so fine That all the world will be in love with night And pay no worship to the garish sun.” -Juliet (Shakespeare)
What if Paris had been Juliet's friend? Her very best friend? What if he was the only one she could confide in about the whole devastating thing with Romeo? The one person who really understood her and made her feel halfway human again? What if he was patient and kind? What if he took care of her? What if Juliet knew she couldn't survive without him? What if he really loved her, and wanted her to be happy? And… what if she loved Paris? Not like Romeo. Nothing like that, of course. But enough that she wanted him to be happy, too?

Don't call us Peter and Wendy; I don't want to be left behind. Don't call us Romeo and Juliet; I don't want you to die for me. Don't call us Cinderella and Prince Charming; I don't want to leave it all to chance. Isn't it okay for us to just be us, and write our own fairy tale? Please don't remove this!

Confession #39 I once Had to play Juliet In a Romeo and Juliet musical Because there wasn't enough girls And I was the only boy who was skinny enough To fit into one of the dresses I was also the only boy who could sing a high note. So like They made me wear like a corset and every thing I will admit I looked like a girl by the time they were done with me By the end of the play though All people could talk about Was how flat chested Juliet was.

The famous line "O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?" is translated to modern day speak as "Oh Romeo, Oh Romeo why do you have to be Romeo?" Mind=Blown
