About this listen
“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 hand unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes, A pair of star-cross’d lovers take their life."
-Romeo & Juliet, Shakespeare
“It's so simple, in a way, I mean, two young people fall in love, because it is love. And they don't get that you're not supposed to do that. You're not supposed to cross the floor and fall in love. But it's love. Love does not understand that. And so, my whole life I have struggled with this notion of that love transcends differences.”
