A Midsummer Night's Dream

So I have begun reading A Midsummer Night's Dream and I am enjoying it a lot more than I did Richard II. A quick few things that have caught my attention in Act I:

"The course of true love never did run smooth"... How true!! Perhaps this is one of the reasons that Shakespeare's work has endured centuries, because he can speak to the heart and emotional chords of his audience.

Also, the play that the common men are working on seems to me to be familiar, but I can't quite put my finger on it... two lovers, forbidden by feuding families, suicide... hmmmmm. I know I've seen this somewhere else....

I am enjoying the plot build up, and am excited to keep reading.
