I can be more literary than that! F'r'instance, let's take that Shakespeare quote. It makes no sense. Why would Juliet care what Romeo's first name is? Surely it should read;
What's in a name? that which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet; So Romeo would, were he not Montague call'd,
And similarly:
Romeo, Romeo ... wherefore art thou Montague?
Duff copying, I suspect.
Also, and just to make you feel guilty, here's that wacky funster G. B. Shaw:
"I do like flowers, madam. I also like children, but I do not cut off their heads and display them in my house."
