Juliet's Monolouge

      In the play Romeo and Juliet, by William Shakespeare, Juliet's quick decisions that lead to problems have the biggest impact in Act 4. In the play, Juliet marries Romeo, someone who she had just met the day before and doesn't even know anything about him except that he is a Monteque and is very devoted to her. This is an example of her personal flaws that she makes quick decisions. Another example of her making quick decisions is not even thinking about what would her family think if they found out that she is married to the person that killed her cousin and is part of the Moteque Family. Also her family forces her to marry Paris, but she doesn't want to so she tries going to Frair, a friend of Romeo and asks him if he could help her with her problem, so Frair gives her a vial that will make her look like she killed herself. In Act 4 Scene 3 Juliet says,"How if, when I am laid in the tomb, I wake before the time that Romeo come to redeem me?..." Juliet is thinking that Romeo will not get to her in time before they bury her when she says " wake before the time that Romeo come to redeem me." Juliet's quick decisions lead to problem with her and family.
