Romeo and Juliet Quotes

Nurse

There's no trust,
No faith, no honesty in men; all are perjured
All forsworn, all naught; dissemblers all!

Friar Lawrence

Our Romeo hath not been in bed tonight.

Nurse

No less? Nay, bigger! Women grow by men.

Juliet

What satisfaction canst thou have tonight?

Juliet

If thou dost love, pronounce it faithfully.
Or if thou thinkest I am too quickly won,
I'll frown and be perverse and say thee nay
So thou wilt woo.

Where is my mother? Why, she is within.
Where should she be? How oddly thou repliest!

Affection makes him false, he speaks not true.

when you have found him than he was when you sought him.

These times of woe afford no times to woo.
Madam, good night, commend me to your daughter.

Friar Lawrence

But come, young waverer, come go with me.
In one respect I'll thy assistant be;
For this alliance may so happy prove
To turn your households' rancor to pure love.

Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,
Who is already sick and pale with grief
That thou her maid art far more fair than she.

By her high forehead and her scarlet lip.

Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear!

When I have fought with the men, I will be civil with the maids -
I will cut off their heads.

Peter

Good thou, save me a
piece of marchpane, and, as thou loves me, let the porter
let in Susan Grindstone and Nell. Anthony, and Potpan!

Juliet

I'll look to like, if looking liking move,
But no more deep will I endart mine eye
Than your consent gives strength to make it fly.

Prince

You men, you beasts,
That quench the fire of your pernicious rage
With purple fountains issuing from your veins!

Lady Capulet

A crutch! A crutch! Why call you for a sword?

Romeo

I'll go along, no such sight to be shown,
But to rejoice in splendor of mine own.

Juliet

Prodigious birth of love it is to me
That I must love a loathed enemy.

Nurse

I tell you, he that can lay hold of her
Shall have the chinks.

Lord Montague

But I can give thee more;
For I will raise her statue in pure gold.

Juliet

O, that deceit should dwell
In such a gorgeous palace!

Nurse

Susan and she (God rest all Christian souls!)
Were of an age. Well, Susan is with God;
She was too good for me.

Friar Lawrence

The earth that's nature's mother is her tomb.
What is her burying grave, that is her womb.
