She represents a combination of romance, courage, and inspiration that I find both fascinating and endearing. Hence the inspiration for the title of this blog and my username here :) I'll leave you with some of the last lines of Shakespeare in Love...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663300;"&gt;My story starts at sea... a perilous voyage to an unknown land... a shipwreck... the wild waters roar and heave... the brave vessel is dashed all to pieces, and all the helpless souls within her drowned... all save one... a lady... whose soul is greater than the ocean... and her spirit stronger than the sea's embrace... not for her a watery end, but a new life beginning on a stranger shore. It will be a love story... for she will be my heroine for all time. And her name... Viola.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/31144238-115611093417966916?l=violashakespeare.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://violashakespeare.blogspot.com/feeds/115611093417966916/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=31144238&amp;postID=115611093417966916' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31144238/posts/default/115611093417966916'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31144238/posts/default/115611093417966916'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://violashakespeare.blogspot.com/2006/08/so-friend-convinced-me-to-open-this.html' title=''/><author><name>Arianna Psaltery</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16386509502226569815</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
