One can only hope that we are agile enough to not allow that to happen. It can’t be ignored that women were and still are an extremely vital part of society throughout all of time. Another quote from the book‚ The Women’s History of the World by Rosalind Miles suggests the importance of a woman. “For man without woman there is no heaven in the sky or on Earth. Without woman there would be no sun‚ no moon‚ no agriculture and no fire.” This quote can branch off of the many beliefs of how Earth was

given way to the discovery and deepening of the three-dimensional structure of DNA.

Juliet comes from a different motivation. There are also other possibilities for comparison--are the characters Anybodys and Action similar to Shakespeare’s clowns in the way they comment on society?
