| January 5, 2016
(We are discussing Romeo and Juliet. The teacher is occasionally explaining some of the things that Romeo is saying in the dialogue.)
Teacher: “And here, Romeo is basically saying ‘I want to destroy the part of me that makes me Romeo!’ So he just wants to stab himself in the head.”
Student #1: “Cerebrum.”
Student #2: “Hypothalamus.”
Student #3: “Frontal Cortex.”
Teacher: “I’m pretty sure Shakespeare was referring to his head in general.”
