Shakespeare and Søren Kierkegaard share a similar viewpoint that marriage and romance are not harmoniously "in tune" with each other. In Shakespeare's "Measure for Measure", for example, "...there has not been, nor is there at this point, any display of affection between Isabella and the Duke, if by affection we mean something concerned with sexual attraction. The two at the end of the play love each other as they love virtue." In "Romeo and Juliet", in saying "all combined, save what thou must combine By holy marriage", Romeo implies that it is not marriage with Juliet that he seeks but simply to be joined with her romantically.
