    There are several quotes on unrequited love in Act 1, which you can find easily if you re-read the dialogue between Romeo and Benvolio (scene 1).  Romeo even says, "In sadness, cousin, I do love a woman" (line 204 in my copy).  For quotes on parental love, carefully read scene 3, paying particular attention to the parental love expressed by the Nurse for Juliet as well as her dead daughter, Susan.  Finally, in scene 5, pay particular attention to Romeo and Juliet's first conversation with one another - they are expressing "love at first sight," which is also romantic love
