read the excerpt from act ii, scene v of romeo and juliet.
friar laurence: these violent delights have violent ends,
and in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
which, as they kiss consume: the sweetest honey
is loathsome in his own deliciousness
and in the taste confounds the appetite:
therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
what do the oxymoron and paradox in this excerpt illustrate about love?
a. only love has the ability to overcome obstacles.
b. nothing good ever comes from truly loving another.
c. loving with restraint is the key to long-lasting love.
d. true love causes one to lose the ability to reason.

C. Loving with restraint is the key to long-lasting love.

Explanation:

Friar Laruence's function in this Act is to calm down the impulses of the youngsters. He tries to make Romeo listen to reason and realize that strong emotions only lead to unwise decisions. Marriage is a lifelong commitment, and by acting impulsively, he may not act reasonably. Despite this advice, Romeo and Juliet rush to marry as soon as possible.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
