What is something Romeo said in and Juliet?

Here are a few of Romeo's famous lines from Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet":

1. "But, soft! What light through yonder window breaks?

It is the east, and Juliet is the sun." (Act II, Scene II)

2. "O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?

Deny thy father and refuse thy name;

Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,

And I'll no longer be a Capulet." (Act II, Scene II)

3. "When he shall die,

Take him and cut him out in little stars,

And he will make the face of heaven so fine

That all the world will be in love with night

And pay no worship to the garish sun." (Act III, Scene V)

4. "My mind misgives

Some consequence yet hanging in the stars

Shall bitterly begin his fearful date

With this night's revels and expire the term

Of a despised life closed in my breast

By some vile forfeit of untimely death." (Act III, Scene V)

5. "Is there no pity sitting in the clouds,

That sees into the bottom of my grief?

O, sweet my love, O honey nurse, what news?

Hast thou met with him? Send thy man away." (Act V, Scene III)

These lines showcase Romeo's passionate, poetic, and deeply emotional nature throughout the play.
