"What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot,

Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part

Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!

What's in a name? that which we call a rose

By any other name would smell as sweet;

So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,

Retain that dear perfection which he owes

Without that title."

Just how much do people identify people by a label? Isn't that what racial and sexual profiling is all about? But at the same time, can we function without putting people into categories? Juliets words open up all these questions.
