Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare

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 Romeo call’d,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title.

(Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, Act II, Scene 2)

"Our doubts are traitors,
And make us lose the good we oft might win
By fearing to attempt."
