Act 2 Scene 4: Rosaline is so Last Year

Prompt C:

"Nay, if our wits run the wild-goose chase,
I am done, for thou hast more of the wild goose
in one of thy wits than I am sure I have in
my whole five. Was I with you there for the goose?"

I chose this quote because it shows how love has changed Romeo. Mercutio is stating that Romeo is far more of a goose than he is because he is blinded by the foolishness of love. I think that this is accurate as Romeo has been acting aloof yet depressed at the same time while he was in love with Rosaline, but now that he is in love with Juliet he is acting care free and foolish. This quote really encompasses Romeo's actions while in love with Juliet, so far.
