Version A:
Does Homer Simpson not cry with delight; at doh-nut sight?
Does Juliet not pine, for her Romeo - who's treason gave reason to fight.
Does Shakespeare's line have no reason, only rhyme?
Bah! To quote the bard, is not hard!
But beggar be you, YOU; who act without thought toward the ancient bard...
Version B:
Does Homer Simpson not cry with delight; at doh-nut sight?
Does Juliet not pine, for her Romeo - who's treason gave reason to fight.
Does Shakespeare's line have no reason, only rhyme?
Bah! To quote the bard, is not so hard!
But beggar be you, YOU; who disregard the ancient bard...
Version C:
Does Homer Simpson not cry with delight; at doh-nut sight?
Does Juliet not pine, for her Romeo - who's treason gave reason to fight.
Does Shakespeare's line have no reason, only rhyme?
Bah! To quote the bard, is not so hard!
But beggar be you, YOU; who act with no regard for the ancient bard...
Thought came to me when I was talking to my mum about the past and she said, "You were only young so you didn't realise Thomas the Tank didn't actually speak." To which I replied in rhyme the above lines. I'm arguing that even if a character is made up, his point is still surely valid and therefore the character has spoken. A character has characteristics and traits that develop over time separately to the author who writes about a character. The character exists within the mind of the creator, but once the creator has made the character, it exists outside the creator consequently.
Incidentallyy I was listening to a Youtube playlist of Bob Marley.
