Act 2, scene 2: She's 13...

PROMPT C



"That Which we call a rose by any other word would smell as sweet"

I like this quote because Juliet is speaking to herself, and she is still a bit shocked that her true love is from a family that is her family's sworn enemy. This quote is meaning to say that no matter what we call romeo he will still be romeo, she is saying that his last name means nothing to her, she will still be in love with him.



"Neither, fair maid, if either thee dislike"


I also like this quote because Romeo is basically saying he would do anything she wants. At her command. He says If you don't like my name, you can call me whatever you want. We can see how in love Romeo is in this quote.


"Deny thy father and refuse thy name,"  


Finally, I like this quote because she stops to ask herself if it is all worth it? She is basically saying, will I betray my father, and runaway with my true love, or stay here, and live with the pain of not knowing what would've happened between her and Romeo.

  2. The question is, is Juliet trying to convince others, or trying to convince herself? She is probably working up the courage to defy her family.
