Actually Shakespeare says, "What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet..."
By any other name would smell as sweet..."
This Teaser was really boring
I was confused... I thought I needed to guess a color - which I guessed red.
I believe your last fragment was rather confusing... "People use me to bring others down" I am not seeing that relate to your last fragment explenation.
the last fragment refers to defenses in the previuos one, defenses of the heart,
