(via dreamsthatglitterxo, philosophers)
One of the most incredible works of literature I’ve ever read. Whenever I get bored, I read Shakespeare. I’m planning a tattoo based off Romeo and Juliet. I can literally recite the entire play by heart.
This movie was incredible. In fact, I’m going to go watch it right now :)

Two households, both alike in dignity. In Fair Verona where we lay our scene. From ancient grudge break to new mutiny. Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes, a pair of star-crossed lovers take their life.
This is by far my favorite Shakespeare work. I can recite almost the entire play by heart. <3 My english teachers are usually taken back when I recite the entire Queen Mab poem in one breath. ;)

Romeo: If I profane with my unworthiest hand this holy shrine, the gentle sin is this. My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand to smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss. Juliet: Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much, which mannerly devotion shows in this. For saints have hands that pilgrims’ hands do touch, and palm to palm is holy palmers’ kiss. Romeo: Have not saints lips, and holy palmers, too? Juliet: Ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer. Romeo: Well, then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do. They pray, grant thou, lest faith turn to despair. Juliet: Saints do not move, though grant for prayers’ sake. Romeo: Then move not, while my prayer’s effect I take. Romeo: [They kiss] Thus from my lips, by thine, my sin is purged. Juliet: Then have my lips the sin that they have took? Romeo: Sin from my lips? O trespass sweetly urged! Give me my sin again. Juliet: [they kiss again] You kiss by the book.](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l02d26CQST1qbvy0mo1_500.png)
