About This Quote

In the play “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”, the character Hermia says: “Do you like him much?” and Lysander responds: “I told you I like him a little. Where is the use of caring for him so very much? He is full of faults.” The idea that we should be friendly to all and worship none was a typical and expected response for those of the time. But, now we know better.
