I need quote in each one. Looking for any good reading, quotes that would go well for each paragraph and any discussion that you would put in. I'm not looking for someone to write them for me, just help and ideas.

Thanks!

What is your intro and/or thesis?  Your points will come from that...for instance, if you say that Puck is the protagonist because he is behind all the action in the play, you will need to show through your reasons and points/examples that he is behind the action in the play.  He goes to get the juice from the flower, he puts the juice on the eyes of the sleepers, he helps the lovers get back to the right couplings, he helps cause the problems for the actors and for Hippolyta.  Be sure to give specific examples from each scene to prove your points.  This is where your quotes will come in...take them from the play itself to show Puck's involvement, thus making him the protagonist of the play.

Good Luck!
