Not only was this action impulsive, but it was also selfish. He says “So smile the heavens upon this holy act, That after hours with sorrow chide us not!” (II, vi, 1-2). This line shows importance because Friar Laurence basically says that the marriage was okay, despite the fact that the Capulets and the Montagues are feuding families and have been that way for who knows how long.
