In Act 1 Scene 2, Romeo is comforted by Benvolio, who is lovesick over Rosaline. He tries to ease the pain of loving someone that does not love you back. By caring for Romeo, Benvolio supports the archetype of devoted friend.

In act 1, scene 2, we find that Romeo is in love with a woman named Rosaline. He is devastated at the impossibility of being with her. Benvolio is listening and supporting Romeo. He tries to convince him that it is possible to forget her, while being understanding of Romeo's pain. He also suggests to him to keep his options open. They are about to go to a feast where many women will be present. Benvolio tells Romeo that this will be a good opportunity for him to compare Rosaline to other women.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

What strategy lies behind the use of this quotation? B. Using a quotation by this respected president would link Jordan's words to the much revered President Lincoln's words in the minds of the listeners, giving her credibility. The quotation gives her speech validity.

(...) Well I am going to close my speech by quoting a Republican President and I ask you that as you listen to these words of Abraham Lincoln, relate them to the concept of a national community in which every last one of us participates:  

"As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master." This -- This -- "This expresses my idea of Democracy. Whatever differs from this, to the extent of the difference, is no Democracy."

<em>Barbara Jordan was a politician (feminist) and leader of the black civil rights movement in the United States.</em>
