Famous Love Stories #1: Romeo & Juliet

Counting down to Valentine's Day, we are reminiscing famous love stories. 

In William Shakespeare's's Romeo and Juliet, a long feud between the Montague and Capulet families disrupts the city of Verona and causes tragic results for Romeo and Juliet. Revenge, love, and a secret marriage force the young star-crossed lovers to grow up quickly — and fate causes them to commit suicide in despair. 

Generations have mourned the ending of one of history's most romantic tragedies, and Romeo & Juliet is used as a reference point for true, undying love.
