Romeo and Juliet; Act II, Scene II, Lines 38-49

Juliet. 'Tis but thy name that is my enemy. Thou art thyself, though not Montague. What's Montague? It is nor hand, nor foot, nor arm, nor face, nor any other part belonging to a man. O, be some other name! What's in a name? That we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. So Romeo would, were he not Romeo called, retain that dear perfection which he owes without that tile. Romeo, doff thy name; and for thy name, which is no part of thee, take all myself.
