Helena


Which woman of Shakespeare are you?
brought to you by Quizilla

Helena:
"Things base and vile, holding no quantity,
Love can transpose to form and dignity.
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind".
A Midsummer Night's Dream 1.1

Darn... Am diagnosed as Helena the pathetic male chaser, the unrequited lover--self is no firm believer of unconditional love. To mom and dad: Love you folks, but if you are wicked human beings I shall forget about your existence; expect you to disown me if I happen to do the same. (though some charity money will be appreciated) To brother A-li: Love you, too, but expect red envelopes every Chinese New Year to show gratitude to your endearing sister. To future husband: Will love you wholeheartedly unless you love me back. To future kids: Will love you as well unless you hold the other end of the bargain, which means endless supply of money to keep me entertained, otherwise shall kick you out of the house. Anyways, back to the original topic, of all the Shakespearean female characters, I would love to be Lady Macbeth as she is insanely cool, calm and power-driven.
