Love is the universal, cosmic, all-encompassing ultimate theme.<\/p>\n<p>From the Greeks to the soaps (and it\u2019s not that great a leap in terms of subject matter) we are always trying to figure out love, why it makes us happy or crazy or brave or compassionate. So many of the qualities that make us human are fed by love. <\/p>\n<p>I remember the first time I was dragged to the theater to see Shakespeare. It was seventh grade and we were loaded onto a bus and driven to Wayne State University in Detroit to see a production of <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Twelfth_Night\"><em>Twelfth Night<\/em><\/a>, something no seventh-grade boy wants to sit through. Upon trying to read the play beforehand I found the language archaic and impenetrable and the prospect of watching it performed unbearable. I was prepared to sneer.   <\/p>\n<p>Then the stage lights came up on bewitching Illyria and cast nothing short of a spell on me and my adolescent cynicism. I fell in love with the romance of Viola and Orsino, with the beauty of the spoken dialogue, and with William Shakespeare. I\u2019d walked into the theater a hardened young teen; I left a romantic. The following year Franco Zeffirelli released his film version of <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Romeo_and_Juliet\"><em>Romeo and Juliet<\/em><\/a> and like every boy in my general demographic I formed a ridiculous crush on the actress playing Juliet, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oliviahussey.com\/\">Olivia Hussey<\/a>, that persists in some vague way even to this day.<\/p>\n<p>Love does amazing things to us.
