As I am writing this essay‚ Newton’s first law of motion‚ “for an object to be set in motion‚ a force has to be applied to it”‚ comes to mind. Every object has potential energy to be kinetic‚ but another object must exert physical force to propel it forward. Macbeth has potential energy from his inner desire to be king‚ and his rapt reaction to eliminate foilers in his way proves that.

Blame for Romeo and Juliet’s Death In my opinion‚ the blame goes to the characters that supported and didn’t support Romeo and Juliet.
