Mercutio Quotes In Romeo And Juliet
In Act 2, Scene 1 of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," Mercutio states, "He (Romeo) heareth not, he stirreth not, be moveth not; the ape is dead,
and I must conjure him. I conjure thee by Rosaline's bright eyes. By her high forehead and her scarlet lip, by her fine foot, straight leg, and
quivering thigh" (2. 1. 16–21). This quote shows that Mercutio still thinks Romeo is hung up on Rosaline, and he is being obnoxious and joking
around by saying the only way they'll find Romeo or summon him is by Rosaline. However, the dramatic irony in this is that we, the
audience, know that Romeo is now in love with Juliet, not Rosaline. Romeo overhears Mercutio joking around and states, "He jests at scars
that never felt a wound" (2. 2. 1). What Romeo means by this is that Mercutio shouldn't be poking fun at him when he's never felt his pain or
been in his position of pain when it came to love. Act 2 Scene 2 In Act 2, Scene 2 of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," Juliet states, in regards
to Romeo, "Deny thy father and refuse thy name" (2. 2. 36). What Juliet is saying in this quote is for Romeo to forget about the conflict between
their families and forget about his last name. Additionally, she states, "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would
smell as sweet" (2. 2. 45–46). This quote shows that Juliet doesn't care about Romeo being a Montague; his name doesn't determine who he is. A
soliloquy is a literary device used to show a person's innermost thoughts or feelings. ––––––– In Act 2, Scene 2 of Shakespeare's "Romeo and
Juliet," Juliet states, "So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd, retain that dear perfection which he owes without that title. Romeo, doff thy
name; and for that name, which is no part of thee, I take all myself" (2. 2. 47–51). Juliet states this at the end of her soliloquy, and this quote
shows that she doesn't care about Romeo being a Montague, for his name doesn't determine who he is as a person. She loves him despite of
this, and throughout her soliloquy, she makes this known. In Act 2, Scene 2 of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," Romeo states, "I know not
how to tell thee who I am. My name, dear saint, is hateful to myself," (2. 2. 58–60), in which Juliet replies,
