Romeo And Juliet Quotes Analysis

The Nurse, a trusted confidant of Juliet’s mother, becomes a mentor to Juliet as she helps her navigate the complexities of her relationship with Romeo. As she says, “I’ll lay fourteen of my teeth, And yet, to my teen be it spoken, I have but four, She is not fourteen” (Act 1, Scene 3). The Nurse’s willingness to offer her support to Juliet, even at the cost of her own comfort, speaks to her dedication to the young girl’s well-being.

After the Nurse speaks with Romeo she hurries back to the Capulet house to inform Juliet of her lover’s idea and tells her, “Hie you to church. I must go another way/To fetch a ladder, by which you love/Must climb a bird’s nest soon when it is dark” (II.v.77-79). The Nurse demonstrates her devotion to Juliet as she expresses her desire to find “another way” (II.v.77) to help the young lovers spend their wedding night together and by doing so risks losing her job. She understands the true passion Romeo and Juliet have for each other and does everything she can to make them happy even if that means upsetting their families. This teaches the reader that helping those you love is more important than doing something that does not align with your own morals, like separating two star-crossed lovers because of a centuries-old family

However, this bond quickly becomes abandoned to Juliet after it becomes apparent that her nurse agrees with a forced marriage. This encounter leaves Juliet heartbroken and losing a person she really trusts. In turn, this leaves her with only one other source to trust which is Friar Laurence who can be recognized as someone who had to due with Juliet’s tragic fate. Overall, the

When Juliet is forced to marry Paris, the Nurse “think it best you married with the County” (3.5.227) since “Romeo is banish’d” (3.5.223). The Nurse contemplates Juliet’s options and advises her with good intentions. She wants Juliet to strive for more and have a better life. Furthermore, when Lady Capulet brings up Paris, the Nurse remarked, “lady, such a man As all the world- why he’s a man of wax” (1.3.79-80). She considers Paris as a good marriage partner for Juliet and encourages her to marry him.

His portrayal of her outspoken, bawdy personality as well as her involvement in the deaths of Romeo and Juliet layers a sense of hatred and confusion towards her in contrast to her sympathetic depiction as a result of her background and ill-treatment. The nurse’s improper remarks are exemplified through a sexual innuendo when she is rousing Juliet the morning of her wedding, stating that Juliet is trying to sleep now due to the fact that Paris would not allow her to sleep much following the wedding (Shakespeare IV.v. 4-7). After creating the impression of the nurse towards readers as such a kindhearted woman, Shakespeare portrays the nurse as a vastly different character than what would be expected of her having known her background and social status. She is making a rude and offhand sexual comment regarding the relations between Juliet and Paris, and it is here that as readers, we begin to feel a sense of darkness coming from the nurse in contrast to her supposed innocent self.

The nurse has some immature qualities, and does not set the best example for Juliet. In act one the Nurse has an entire monologue while in a conversation with Juliet and Lady Capulet, where she jokes about her deceased husband making inappropriate remarks towards Juliet when she was a young child. Lady Capulet does not find her anecdote amusing and says “Enough of this. I pray thee, hold thy peace. (1.3.51)” to which the nurse responds with another joke referring to the story again, at which point Lady Capulet repeats herself in annoyance.

The Nurse helped Juliet be with Romeo without thinking about the consequences that might come after it. Juliet trusted the Nurses opinion because they were close and she was just a child. This caused the Nurse to make a decision that killed Juliet at the end of the

Juliet and the Nurses relationship is first shown as mother-daughter like and throughout the play and their interactions consist of friendly conversations. However, this later progresses to insults after Juliet curses the Nurse; Shakespeare then introduces a character foil to separate them. Because of this separation Juliet becomes isolated from the rest of her family, because the Nurse, who was the closest person to her, betrayed Juliet she is left alone in a house with people who don’t act like her family. Therefore, Shakespeare shows how the broken relationship between the Nurse and Juliet creates conflict throughout

(3.2.138-141). These words spoken by the Nurse leads Juliet to believe that despite the catastrophe Romeo caused, everything will still be okay. This false sense of hope is what leads to Juliet taking the risk of meeting Romeo at her home and even arguing against the wishes of her parents to prevent him from being banished. The events that follow this are what lead to the sequence of mistakes and extremities experienced by Juliet as she begins to make rushed decisions. Though the Nurse has been portrayed as Juliet’s number one supporter, this is evidently disrupted by her stronger devotion to the rulings of Lord and Lady Capulet.

The Nurse shows her support for Juliet when she tells her where to meet Romeo. “Then hie you hence to Friar Lawrence’s cell. There stays a husband to make you a wife. Now comes the wanton blood up in your cheeks. They’ll be in scarlet straight at any news.

Lastly, Shakespeare uses Romeo and Juliet to show true love. Nurse shows parental love to Juliet throughout the play. Despite being a servant to the Capulet household, she has a role equivalent to that of Juliet’s mothers and regards Juliet as her own. Even with the fact that Nurse is not the birth mother of Juliet, she still treats Juliet like a daughter. Nurse cares about Juliet and wants her to be happy and find success.”
