Juliet: Tell me not, friar, that thou hear'st of this, Unless thou tell me how I may prevent it: If, in thy wisdom, thou canst give no help, Do thou but call my resolution wise, And with this knife I'll help it presently. —Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare How does Juliet's dialogue reveal a tragic flaw that qualifies her as a tragic hero in the play? Juliet confides only in Friar Laurence about her dislike for Paris. Juliet's actions to avoid marrying Paris are impulsive and extreme. Juliet is mature enough to make her own decision and does not need advice.
