Benvolio draws his sword in Act 1, Scene 1 of "Romeo and Juliet" to defend his friend, Romeo, and to restore peace during a brawl between the Montagues and Capulets. He attempts to break up the fight and prevent further violence, showcasing his role as a peacemaker. Benvolio's actions reflect his desire to avoid conflict and uphold honor, contrasting with the impulsiveness of other characters.

"Shall I speak ill of him who is my husband? Ah, poor my lord, what tongue shall smooth thy name when I, thy three-hours' wife have mangled it?" That's a great line. Juliet says that if his wife won't stand by Romeo, who will? Her reason for defending him (even though neither she nor the nurse know any of the facts) is sheer loyalty.
Cigarettes are the #2 preventable cause of death worldwide. There is no defense.
