Paraphrased from Romeo and Juliet ..discuss "True understanding is deeper in meaning than mere words, and is important for its result, not petty rhetoric. Those who can verbalize their happiness have little happiness to speak of. My love has grown so much that I can't tell even half of it in words."
Any thoughts? | |

Those who can verbalize their happiness have little happiness to speak of.
i think it applies some of the time, but not always.  | |

Ummmm...it isn't possible to do a proper interpretation without a direct quotation.
Shakespeare is in English, you know -- no translation is necessary. And because he used very precise language, any paraphrasing before the fact is going to alter his meaning. It's impossible to tell from this whether the section you've quoted is even in verse or prose (which makes a huge difference). We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

It's impossible to tell from this whether the section you've quoted is even in verse or prose (which makes a huge difference). i think this is the original: JULIET Conceit, more rich in matter than in words, Brags of his substance, not of ornament. They are but beggars that can count their worth. But my true love is grown to such excess I cannot sum up sum of half my wealth. i think the paraphrasing serves to make the meaning clearer to a modern audience.  | |

This isn't an excercise for my English Lit teacher but more to express a feeling in modern English.
