There are many ties that bind, and as many walls that divide. Music and madness. Love and unending time. Race and war. Strum weaves together each element into a larger human tapestry of light and shadow, where a combination of fate and decision can define a family's legacy.

About This Quote

In the "Anthem" from Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet", the character of Paris vents his frustration with the feud between his family and the Montague family. In his outburst, he laments that there are many ties that bind and as many walls that divide. But what he fails to mention is how music and madness, love and unending time, race and war, and strum weaves together each element into a larger human tapestry of light and shadow, where a combination of fate and decision can define a family's legacy.
