Today we took Quiz #2 and discussed the following writer's notebook prompt, "John Green derived his book's title from a famous line in Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves, that we are underlings."  What does the line mean--and why would Green have used it for his title?  Even more importantly, why would he have altered it?  How does Green's meaning differ from Shakespeare's?
