    In the play A Midsummer Night’s Dream‚ a quote said by Bottom states that‚ “to say the truth‚ reason and love keep little company together nowadays.” I believe that is is a very important part of the theme of the entire play and can be tied in with the contrast between the Athenian court and the wilderness.
