It is dangerous to become attached to a du Lac. He will break your heart, and you will not recover.

About This Quote

What does it mean to say that a man like Maurice du Lac will break your heart and not be able to fix it? Du Lac was a famous British actor who appeared in dozens of productions. He was known for his “romantic” roles and for his tragically tragic romances. His role as Romeo in Romeo and Juliet prompted author William Shakespeare to say, “The history of Rome was the history of the downfall of great men.” There is something to that, particularly with regard to du Lac, who became very attached to his character. After all, he lived the part! When he played Romeo, he gave all of himself to it.
