Which excerpt from act v, scene iii of romeo and juliet best reflects the play’s overall theme?

lady capulet: o me! this sight of death is as a bell,
that warns my old age to a sepulchre.
prince: see what a scourge is laid upon your hate,
that heaven finds means to kill your joys with love;
romeo: hold, take this letter; early in the morning
see thou deliver it to my lord and father.
montague: o thou untaught! what manners is in this,
to press before thy father to a grave?

Prince: See what a scourge is laid upon your hate, /That heaven finds means to kill your joys with love;

This line best shows the play's overall theme. It shows how the hate between the two families drove their children to commit suicide. The Prince is scolding the parents for their behavior and effectively summing up Shakespeare's message.

The right answer is Prince: See what a scourge is laid upon your hate,

That heaven finds means to kill your joys with love;

Explanation: scourge means affliction or predicament and the lovers's affliction is that they love each other but their families hate each other, though.

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.
