Read the excerpt from act i, scene i of romeo and juliet. yet tell me not, for i have heard it all. here’s much to do with hate, but more with love: why then, o brawling love! o loving hate! o any thing! of nothing first create. o heavy lightness! serious vanity! mis-shapen chaos of well-seeming forms! feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health! still-waking sleep, that is not what it is! this love feel i, that feel no love in this. dost thou not laugh? the oxymorons in romeo’s dialogue emphasize the anger he feels toward a certain woman. his certainty about his romantic fate. the extreme emotions that he is feeling. his confusion about benvolio’s advice.

the extreme emotions that he is feeling.

In this scene, Romeo confides in Benvolio, and tells him that he has fallen in love. However, he is extremely sad because the woman he loves does not love him back. Immediately after, Romeo notices that there has been a fight.

These events, all of which leave strong impressions on Romeo, cause him to have extreme feelings. This is shown by the oxymorons he uses in the text. He is confused and emotional, and believes the fight to have been caused by love, not hate. However, he cannot describe what love is, except through this series of contradictions.
