Shakespeare in Love

Have always disliked Shakespeare since sec skool & i din even take E.Lit.

All tat I'm familiar was "I know not why I am so sad" from Merchant of Vernice tat i heard from my frens all the time.

Especially dislike Romeo & Juliet as I found the ending very dumb. The only bearable work was Macbeth. See, the violent streak in mi is showing.

Tat's until i caught my first R(A) show, Shakespeare in Love.

I was totally captivated by the story & the intense of the love & passion between the lovers as well as the unfortunate circumstances surrounding the love.

from den on, i am a converted fan & i even bought the screenplay of Shakespeare in Love & The Love Poetry of William Shakespeare.

The language is just so beautiful. This is truly the language of love.


Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs;
Being purg'd, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes;
Being vex'd, a sea nourish'd with lovers' tears;
What is it else? A madness most discreet,
A choking gall, and a preserving sweet.

Romeo and Juliet (I.i)
