Young men’s love then lies
Not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes.
– William Shakespeare
Romeo and Juliet, Act 2, Scene 3. Friar Laurence makes his thoughts known on young Romeo’s form of impulsive love. He is shocked by Romeo’s new-found devotion to Juliet and his sudden loss of love towards Rosaline. The wise friar concludes that young men fall in love basely solely on appearances and looks.
