"Death lives on her like an untimely frost." (Act 4 Scene 5)
Lady Capulet says this about Juliet because she is really pale and dead looking. Friar Laurence 's potion made her cold when you touched her, she turned pale, and she was so unconscious that she had no pulse. Everyone truly thought she was dead. This is a simile because Lady Capulet is comparing her daughter's looks to be as white as the frost on the ground because she is so white. Juliet has the look of death on her face.
"Death is my son-in-law, Death is my heir." (act 4 Scene 5)
Lady Capulet's words are a simile because she is comparing death to her son-in-law. She is saying that, because Juliet is dead, she will never have a son-in-law. Even though she does not know Romeo is her son-in-law, she believes she will never have one. She is also comparing her daughter to death again. Friar Laurence's potion worked so well that everyone thought she was dead. We knew she was not dead, but she looked the part to her family and everyone else that attended her funeral.
"I dreamt my lady came and found me dead." (Act 5 Scene 2)
This is an example of foreshadowing because Romeo did not know that Juliet would really find him dead. When she woke up, she saw his body laying on the floor dead. Romeo's dream was real because she found him seconds after he drank the poison. If he had waited a little longer, he would have witnessed her awaking and they wouldn't be dead. The two lovers could have even run away together and lived their lives happily with each other.

"O God, I have an ill-divining soul! Methinks I see thee, how thou art below, As one dead in the bottom of a tomb, Either my eyesight fails, or thou look'st pale." (Act 3 Scene 5)
This quote said by Juliet is foreshadowing because she feels she will die. Even though she doesn't know it yet, she actually will kill herself. Because she sees Romeo's dead body, she decides to kill herself. She feels that she cannot live without him. If he is dead, she feels that there is no other reason to live. Their love was and always will be forbidden. In a way, that was the only way they could truly be a couple without someone trying to kill Romeo. If they hadn't killed themselves, they might still have to sneak around to see each other. Another thing that could have happened is that Juliet could have been force to marry Paris while still being married to Romeo. Lots of other things could have happened if they had stayed alive.
"I would the fool were married to her grave." (Act 3 Scene 5)
This is an example of foreshadowing because Lady Capulet had no idea that Juliet would actually commit suicide. If she had known, things could have happened differently. For example, she could have actually listened and helped Juliet when her problems. Instead, she made the nurse deal with her. Lady Capulet could have also tried talking to her husband about their daughter not getting married. Because she didn't care, she just told Juliet to go along with it. She didn't care how her daughter felt as long as her and her husband were happy. She could have had a better relationship with Juliet if she would have just listened and care about her. She let the nurse raise and care for her instead of being a mother and doing them herself.

"What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot, nor arm, nor face, nor any other part belonging to a man." (Act 2 Scene 2)
Juliet is saying that Montague is just Romeo's name. She is saying that is does not really matter if they have different names. They love each other for themselves and not their name. Because Capulets and Montagues hate each other, they are forbidden to love each other. They have to be secret and cannot really be seen with each other. Their names make their love for each other difficult. If they were seen together, the guards would shoot and kill Romeo. If the two sides would just get along, the lovers would not have to be secretive and can be a normal couple. Until that happens, they have to have a secret relationship.
"O' swear not by the moon, th' inconstant moon." (Act 2 Scene 2)
Juliet is telling Romeo not to swear his love for her on the ever changing moon. The moon is always changing. If he would have stayed with that swear, he would be saying that his love for her changes. She wants him to love her constantly and not have it change. If his love would change, he would not be loyal to her. Juliet wants Romeo to be there forever and never leave. Juliet wants him to stay by her side whenever she needs him. She wants his love to be real and true.

"An I might live to see thee married once I have my wish."
The nurse says this because she is more of a mother to Juliet than Lady Capulet. The nurse took care of her like she was her own child. Because she lost her child, she is excited that Juliet will be getting married. The nurse cannot do those things with her biological child, so she does mother-daughter things with Juliet. I think she is more excited than Juliet is about the wedding.
"My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand to smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss."
Romeo says this so that Juliet will kiss him. When he first see her, he instantly fell in love. He thought that she was this beautiful creature that he was destined to meet. Because of this encounter, Romeo just had to get a kiss from his one true love. He also told her that he transferred his sin to her when they kissed. So to get it back from her, they kissed again. In my opinion, this was very clever because he got to spend more time with her and he got to kiss her more.
