#24 Free Write: Lord, what fools these mortals be
The line "Lord, what fools these mortals be" is from the book Midsummer's night dream from the the famous writer Shakespeare. Which was mostely about these 4 people being in love and how a Elf was sappose to help fix the love triangle but how he messed up the task. Than it is his mission to fix the problem he started. Over all the story is really actually fun to read or listen to. Their are alot of compication as the story goes on. Like for example one of the actors wears a mask as a donkey on his head then one of the pixes springled magic dust on his head which made the mask of the donkey really real on him. Which of course when he came out to do his part in the rehersal he scared all the other preformers with his donkey as his head and face. That is also one of shakespeares famous Qoutes in some of this plays. These lines mean how the huymans take love and affection seriusly compared to how the elves them self take it. So they just watch for awhile of the 4 lovers argue at each other about who loves who. The elves belive this was the act of the gods or the hands of fate or something. They continue to watch as the fight increases in the middle of the forest. The characters in the scene is Oberon,Lysander,Hermia, Helena, Demetireous and Puck. The scene is one of the most important of the play before the plot i think. I don't really remeber of the whole play much but it is one of the best books to read when you want to start to learn more on Shakespeare and his writing. It is also true how humans are kinda fools when it comes to love. many of us take ti way to seriusly and some of us take i to lightly. When we take it to seriusly we make our self to vunarable to out feelings and we easly think we are in love to easily. But when we take it reallly lightly when it comes to love we usually hurt someone we care and we don't realize it till hte last straw. when it comes to love humans should learn to blance our love life and social life.
