Do you know why is "Romeo and Juliet" so long?... This is why....
Act 1, Scene 1 (40-55):
Sampson: Nay, as they dare. I will bite my thumb at them; which is disgrace to them, if they bear it.
Abraham: Do you bite your thumb at us, sir?
Sampson: I do bite my thumb, sir.
Abraham: Do you bite your thumb at us, sir?
Sampson: Is the law of our side, if I say ay?
Gregory: No
Sampson: No, sir, I do not bite my thumb at you, sir; but I bite my thumb, sir?
Gregory: Do you quarrel, sir?
Abraham: Quarrel, sir? No, sir.
Sampson: But if you do, sir, I am for you. I serve as good a man as you.
Abraham: No better.
Sampson: Well, sir.
