Kwize Master
This line is said during a conversation between Friar Laurence and Romeo, after the young man met Juliet. Friar Laurence blames Romeo for his fickleness; obsessed with Rosaline just before, he’s now madly in love with Juliet. Friar Laurence reproaches his pupil for changing his mind easily and being dominated by his emotions. He warns him not to expect for sincerity or faithfulness from women while being himself inconstant.
