Read the excerpts from Ovid’s "Pyramus and Thisbe" and Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet.

"Pyramus and Thisbe”

She recognized
her own shawl and his dagger's ivory sheath.
She cried: "Dear boy, you died by your own hand:
your love has killed you. But I, too, command
the force to face at least this task: I can
claim love, and it will give me strength enough
to strike myself.

I'll follow you in death;
and men will say that I—unfortunate—
was both the cause and comrade of your fate.
Nothing but death could sever you from me;
but now death has no power to prevent
my joining you. I call upon his parents
and mine; I plead for him and me—do not
deny to us—united by true love,
who share this fatal moment—one same tomb.
And may you, mulberry, whose boughs now shade
one wretched body and will soon shade two,
forever bear these darkly colored fruits
as signs of our sad end, that men remember
the death we met together.”

Romeo and Juliet

Gregory: Say better; here comes one of my master's kinsmen.

Sampson: Yes, better, sir.

Abraham: You lie.

Sampson: Draw, if you be men.--Gregory, remember thy swashing blow.

[They fight.]

[Enter BENVOLIO.]

Ever wondered what drives humans to explore space? What is it we seek? I believe we are driven by the desire to be the first to explore, conquer, and own newly discovered resources. However, this desire comes
enormous price, especially for the pioneering nation Financial resources are finite, even for the richest nation on earth, the United States. We simply cannot do everything we would like to, much like I can't go buy
new car until I have room in my budget
The United States has a tremendous amount of company in its hunger to see beyond the already visited boundaries of the final frontier. The resources of NASA are the envy of the rest of the aspiring space-explor
nations. However, there are most certainly unidentified resources here on Earth yet to discover and research (and lay first claim to). We don't know everything about Earth and, I dare say, we cannot know everythin
yet Shouldn't we learn all we can here, where research isn't nearly as costly or dangerous?
There must be extraordinary things to discover and understand in pace. I get that. But what is our rush? Wouldn't our energy be better spent trying to solve so many other problems that plague mankind where w
today? There is truly no shortage of these relatively local kinds of problems. Just contemplate with me what those leading scientists and innovative thinkers, who spend all their time contemplating the existence
universes, galaxies, and other worlds currently beyond our reach, could accomplish if they turned their telescopes toward home?
