ÃÂLove conquers all other emotionsÃÂ, a saying which is demonstrated in the world famous ShakespeareÃÂs play Romeo and Juliet. A play of romance, love, hate, anger, conflict and death. A play of two families in an ancient grudge, exchanging blows with each others and losing friends and family to this grudge. But in the midst of this brawl, this continuous fighting, a ÃÂpair of star crossed loversÃÂ arise and defy their parents and close friends to continue their ongoing relationship. This love continues and continues until fate takes an abrupt turn and renders them both dead from unfortunate circumstances.

Some of the representations of love in the play are friendship, duty, support and passion which cause the reader to respond in different ways to each of the portrayals of love.
