To temper justice with mercy is to consider the individual and societal needs of forgiveness in order to soften (temper) our need for justice. It is possibly another way of having the punishment fit the crime. Today, we have systems where certain victimless crimes or wrongdoings are met with such incredibly harsh and seemingly disproportionate punishment that we do immense harm to a person's spirit and ability to overcome, repent, develop and grow from mistakes.

What the conflict between justice and mercy is as depicted in the merchant of Venice?
I always try to view the difference between justice and mercy as complex as the difference between Shylock and Portia, the Jew and the Christians. It is quite interesting that Mercy is such a central theme in the play because in a way, it is absent. Shylock seeks just with the absence of mercy while Portia seeks Justice with the seasoned or flavoured by mercy. In the end, even Portia discards the mercy that she so advocates. I would say the difference between mercy and justice (especially in the play) is what law people call the difference between equity and justice. Justice is set in stone and wrong and right are easily distinguishable while mercy is more based on compassion and thus is not necessarily justice. For Shylock to be served Justice, he has to deny Antonio mercy. In return, for Portia to be equally just, she chooses to be strictly law abiding with the absence of mercy. Hope this makes sense, Bezi

Is shall you her more or shall you speak at this is it a aside in romeo and Juliet?
The correct quotation is "Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?" "Shall I hear more" does not mean the same thing as "shall you hear more" Probably the best way to define an aside is a line said by a character which is unheard by anyone else on stage, but is heard by the audience. By this definition, the remark is an aside: Romeo says it but Juliet doesn't hear it. The Wikipedia definition of aside as a remark addressed to the audience is unhelpful, as it is unclear whether the remark is to be addressed to the audience or whether he is addressing himself. It depends on how the actor is directed.
