1. that everyones destiny is to die early
2. 17th century love is fail
3. shakespeare is obsessed with adultery and regicide
4. to read or not to read
5. 17th century people are more bored than me
6. the time taken to read a book is independant of its size
7. everyone has unrealistically large vocabularies
8. talking to no one is "cool"
9. several humans obey the bose einstein statistics
10. the more boring the text, the more likely it will be studied

1. it is THEATRE.
2. see above.
3. see above above.
4. omgsh youre so FUNNEH!
5. how so? provide citation.
6. are you saying it is not dependant on the size? well of course, it depends on font size, and the abilities of the reader.
7. actually, the reasoning for this is that the people who are depicted in the play are usually nobility. those who are not, often speak in less eloquent prose.
8. see 1. it is a STYLISTIC FEATURE
9. um... i fail to see the relevance.
10. this is false. that is why none of the prescribed texts include anything written by Stephanie Meyer.
