Best Answer

Well, for a start, Shakespeare does not say it; the character Escalus says it. It is the last line in the play Romeo and Juliet, and is Escalus's closing comment on the scene of the double funeral. The line is self-explanatory. "Woe" means sadness. Adding a few words might make the line even clearer: "For never was (there) a story of more woe than this (story) of Juliet and her Romeo." If you still cannot understand that, you do not have enough English to understand this answer anyway.
