Mercutio, Romeo & Juliet
I like this one (^) because it makes me get on and do things
Re: Fav Shakespeare Quote.
And the scene in Midsummer Night's Dream at the end with the play...and the wall....
All of Twelfth Night is Banging
The Tempest - Alonso - 'I wish mine eys would with themselves, shut up my thoughts'
Re: Fav Shakespeare Quote.
I played Malvolio in a school play. Fun!

Re: Fav Shakespeare Quote.

And the demenses that there adjacent lie..."
Not my favourite, but one of the most shocking.Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet. Probably the most sexually explicit bit of Shakespeare, though most of his lines are really.
I'm sure there's some stage direction about a bear coming on stage. Mercutio's Queen Mab speech is probably the most beautiful bit of Shakespeare. I like alot of Antony and Cleopatra too.
[elitist] I prefer Webster and Marlowe though [/elitist]
Re: Fav Shakespeare Quote.
Very clever, cos it also means Hartless hinds, these bitches with no cocks, in gangsta terms.
Re: Fav Shakespeare Quote.
Re: Fav Shakespeare Quote.
For sexually explicit, try Malvolio talking about 'Her Cs, Us, and Ts, by which she makes her great Ps'
We did that scene in drama at school when I was 13, and I still thought saying the c-word landed you in borstal...
Re: Fav Shakespeare Quote.
and
ABRAM: Do you bite your thumb at us, sir?
SAMPSON: I do bite my thumb, sir.
ABRAM: Do you bite your thumb at us, sir?
SAMPSON: No sir, I do not bite my thumb at you, sir, but I bite my thumb, sir.
Yes, they are just the funny stupid ones, but our English teacher really sucked the fun out of it and that meant I was never inspired to read it myself.
Re: Fav Shakespeare Quote.
Mercutio's death scene goes a little something like:
Tis is wound that's notsa deep, but deep enough.....
....a curse on both your houses!
Re: Fav Shakespeare Quote.
Ay, ay, a scratch, a scratch. Ay, a scratch, a
scratch. HA HA HA.
ROMEO
Courage man, the hurt can not be much.
MERCUTIO
'Twill serve. Ask for me tomorrow and you shall find me a grave man. A plague o' both your houses. They have made worms meat of me. A plague on both your Houses!

Re: Fav Shakespeare Quote.
creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
the way to dusty death.
Out, out brief candle!
Life is but a walking shadow,
a poor player that struts and frets
his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more.
It is a tale told by an idiot,
full of sound and fury signifying nothing.
I know that's a bit obvious but when I first heard it aged fourteen it seemed to describe how I felt.
Re: Fav Shakespeare Quote.
"When to the sessions of sweet silent thought
I summon up remembrance of things past,
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,
And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste:
Then can I drown an eye, unused to flow,
For precious friends hid in death's dateless night,
And weep afresh love's long since cancell'd woe,
And moan the expense of many a vanish'd sight:
Then can I grieve at grievances foregone,
And heavily from woe to woe tell o'er
The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan,
Which I new pay as if not paid before.
But if the while I think on thee, dear friend,
All losses are restored and sorrows end."

Shakespeare was fucking amazing with words sometimes, wasn't he?
Re: Fav Shakespeare Quote.
Some don't, but they're elitist snobs who don't believe an average bloke born in the 16th century could have ascended those literary summits.
