Famous quotes containing the words romeo, juliet and/or score:
“A laughing Lear would be monstrous. Not so a laughing Romeo and Juliet.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Earthly minds, like mud walls, resist the strongest batteries: and though, perhaps, sometimes the force of a clear argument may make some impression, yet they nevertheless stand firm, and keep out the enemy, truth, that would captivate or disturb them. Tell a man passionately in love, that he is jilted; bring a score of witnesses of the falsehood of his mistress, it is ten to one but three kind words of hers shall invalidate all their testimonies.”
—John Locke (1632–1704)
