Much Ado About Nothing is one of his better plays. Esp. in the romance genre. Have I mentioned how much I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOATHE Romeo & Juliet? If not, I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOATHE Romeo & Juliet. Hamlet rules all - Kenneth Branaugh's version is supreme!

So, how is it you feel about Romeo and Juliet?

I second the LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOATHING of Romeo and Juliet and pray I never, ever, EVER have to teach it to 9th graders.

In ninth grade, we had to pick a section from the play and recite it in front of class for a grade. I still remember the section I picked.

My only love sprung from my only hate
Too early seen unknown and known too late
Prodigious birth of love it is to me
That I must love a loathed enemy

I CANNOT GET THIS SHIT OUT OF MY BRAIN. Twenty fucking years later. ARGH.
