LOVE THROUGH CENTURIES
ALL THE WORLD IS A STAGE
AND ALL THE MEN AND WOMEN MERELY PLAYERS
THEY HAVE THEIR EXITS AND THEIR ENTRANCES,
AND ONE MAN IN HIS TIME PLAYS MANY PARTS,
HIS ACTS BEING SEVEN AGES.
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
ROMEO AND JULIET
BALCONY SCENE
•
•
•
(Juliet opens a window above and looks out)
ROMEO: (whispering) Oh, what is the light coming through that window? The window is the east and Juliet is the sun..
It is my lady! Oh, it is my love! I wish she knew she was my love. She rests her cheek in her hand. Oh, I wish that I were a glove on her hand, so that I
could touch that cheek.
•
JULIET: Oh my!
•
ROMEO: She speaks! Oh speak again, bright angel
•
JULIET: Oh Romeo, Romeo, why does your name have to be Romeo? Tell me that Montague is not your father, and that is not your name. Or, if you
won’t do that, just promise to be my love, and I shall no longer be a Capulet. It is only your name that is my enemy. Give up your name, Romeo – it’s
not part of you, anyway.
•
ROMEO: Just call me-love, and I shall never be Romeo again.
•
JULIET: Who is that, hiding in the night? Aren’t you Romeo, and a Montague?
•
ROMEO: I am neither, fair lady, if you dislike either of them. Love is brave enough to try anything- so your family will not stop me. I swear by the
moon…
•
JULIET: Oh sweet Romeo don’t swear by the moon which changes all through the month. I don’t want your love to be changeable like the moon. If
you must swear, swear by yourself. For you are the god that I love.
•
•
Now..Good night my love…Sleep as sweetly as I will.
Coming Nurse.
Parting is such sweet sorrow that I shall say good night till it be morrow.
•
ROMEO: Let there be sleep in your eyes, and peace in your heart. Good night sweet Juliet, good night my love…
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? (Sonnet 18)
William Shakespeare, 1564 - 1616
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimmed;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st,
Nor shall death brag thou wand’rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to Time thou grow’st.
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
And finally...

Divine love does not weigh down, nor carry his servant captive and enslaved to the lowest depths, but raises
him, supports him and magnifies him above all liberty whatsoever.

ВАСКО ПОПА
ОЧИЈУ ТВОЈИХ ДА НИЈЕ
Очију твојих да није
Не би било неба
У малом нашем стану
Смеха твога да нема
Зидови не би никад
Из очију нестајали
НИЈЕ ВА’ЖНО КОЛИКО РАДИШ, ВЕЋ ЈЕ
ВАЖНО КОЛИКО ЉУБАВИ УНОСИШ У ОНО
ШТО РАДИШ.- МАРИЈА ТЕРЕЗИЈА
ДЕСАНКА МАКСИМОВИЋ
СРЕЋА
Не мерим више време на сате,
ни по сунчевом врелом ходу
дан ми је кад његове се очи врате
и ноћ кад поново од мене оду.
Не мерим срећу смехом, ни тиме
да ли је чежња моја од његове јача;
срећа је моја кад болно ћутим с њиме
и кад нам срца бију ритмом плача.
Није ми жао што ће живота воде
однети и моје гране зелене;
сад нека младост и све нека оде:
он је задивљен стао крај мене.
ЈОВАН ДУЧИЋ
ПЕСМА ЉУБАВИ
Свој једини живот ти живиш у мени;
да будеш осећај и сан ти се сазда;
не тражим на путу твој лик неслућенидалеко ван тебе иде твоја бразда.
Очи су ти зато да оплоде звуке,
и глас да молитву у срцима роди;
сав покрет изгледа замах твоје руке;
ти сјаш у стварима као дан у води.
Твој је дах да семе не смрзне у њиви;
твоја љубав да би било побожности;
твоја равнодушност, да може да живи
гордост очајања и горки чар злости.
Ти ниси у себи јер ти нема краја;
твој говор почиње музику свих вода;
речи су ти конци у ткиву свег сјаја;
идеш, ко молитва, од земље до свода.
И ти си начело већма него биће...
Ноћ да блисну звезде замах победника,
да буде победа...Лепота, откриће,
пре него мом духу беше реч и слика.
ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE
