Why did Holling think Romeo and Juliet were stupid?
Holling thought Romeo and Juliet were stupid because they allowed their emotions to control their actions, leading them to make rash and impulsive decisions. Specifically, he found Juliet's decision to drink the poison to be particularly foolish, as she essentially committed suicide because Romeo was already dead. Holling believes that people should think logically and practically, and not let their emotions get the better of them.
