The lady doth protest too much, methinks. .

TheRoadDog

Thee can't handle the truth! Son, we liveth in a world that hath walls, and those walls has't to beest guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do't? thee? thee, Lieutenant Weinberg? I has't a greater responsibility than thee can possibly fathom. thee weep for Santiago and thee curse the Marines. thou has't that luxury. thou has't the luxury of not knowing what I knoweth, that Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved liveth. And mine existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to thee, saves liveth!

I don't tip because society sayeth I has't to. All right, if 't be true someone deserves a tip, if 't be true those gents very much putteth forth an effort, I'll giveth those folk something a little something extra. But this tipping automatically, it's for the birds. As far as lest I concerned, they're just doing their job.

Romeo, O Romeo where for art thou Romeo? Deny my father and refuse my name; or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love and no longer be a Capulet? Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this? Tis but thy name that is my enemy: thou art they self is not a Montague.

"What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet."

He jests at scars that never felt a wound.

He that hath a beard is more than a youth, and he hath no beard is less than a man. And he that is more than a youth is not for me. And he that is less than a man, I am not for him.

More than one line, but solid gold

I must be cruel, only to be kind;
Thus bad begins and worse remains behind.

Macbeth, Macbeth , beware Macduff

Lead on Macduff

ejbronte

We are such stuff
As dreams are made on; and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep.

ejbronte

I am but mad north-north-west. When the wind is southerly, I know a hawk from a handsaw.

beagletracks

Neither a borrower nor a lender be;
For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.

Montepulciano

I wish my horse had the speed of your tongue.

beagletracks

Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.

A man can smile and smile, and be a villain.

The play's the thing
In which I'll catch the conscience of the king.

beagletracks

... Why bas_tard? wherefore base?
When my dimensions are as well compact,
My mind as generous, and my shape as true,
As honest madam's issue? Why brand they us
With base? with baseness? bastardy? base, base?
Who, in the lusty stealth of nature, take
More composition and fierce quality
Than doth, within a dull, stale, tired bed,
Go to the creating a whole tribe of fops,
Got 'tween asleep and wake?

my favorite soliloquy!

doubt thou the stars are fire,
doubt that the sun doth move.
doubt truth to be a liar,
but never doubt I love.

"Love's not time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks beneath his bending sickle's compass come. Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, but carried forth, even to the edge of doom."

are born great, some achieve greatness, and some
have greatness thrust upon 'em ..."

For I have sworn thee fair, and thought thee bright, who art as black as hell, as dark as night.
