Answer:

Of the options given, the correct one is "Ancient grudges or long term family feuds are difficult to overcome."

Step-by-step explanation:

The other options are incorrect for the following reasons:

  • Romeo and Juliet's forbidden love did not overcome the obstacles. They ended up killing themselves.
  • Revenge, at least in the story, led to innocent people suffering and dying.
  • Romeo and Juliet tried to deceive their family but weren't able to do it due to a misunderstanding. Romeo drank poison because he thought Juliet had died. She, however, woke up from a drug induced sleep and killed herself after realizing her lover had died.
