Fate and destiny quotes in Romeo and Juliet?

Although I joy in thee,


I have no joy of this contract tonight,


It is too rash, too unadvis’d, too sudden,


Too like the lightning, which doth cease to be


Ere one can say “it lightens”.


(Juliet, act 2 scene 2)



A plague a’ both houses!


(Mercutio, act 3 scene 1)


A great power than we can contradict


Hath thwarted our intents.


(Friar Lawrence, act 5 scene 3)


Romeo and Mercutio both predict their own deaths through their statements in Act I, scene iv, and Act III, scene i, respectively


“This day’s black fate on moe days doth depend,


This but begins the woe others must end.”


(Romeo, act 3 scene 1)
