If Shakespeare said it...

[brandycr]

I do believe that thou art a bootless beetleheaded coxcomb that behaves as a loggerheaded earthvexing maggot pie!

[thescot]

I like thy wit well, in good faith. The gallows does well; but how does it well? It does well to those that do ill. Now, thou dost ill to say the gallows is built stronger than the church, argal, the gallows may do well to thee. Cudgel thy brains no more about it, Jim, for your dull *** will not mend his pace with beating; and, when you are ask’d this question next, say “a grave-maker”; the houses that he makes lasts till doomsday.

Nick, you remind me of Yorick. You're a man of good breeding and a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy . . .Where be your gibes now? your gambols? your songs? your flashes of merriment, that were wont to set the table on a roar? Not one now, to mock your own grinning? quite chap-fallen? Now get you to my lady's chamber, and tell her, let her paint an inch thick, to this favour she must come; make her laugh at that. Prithee, Nick, tell me one thing.

Art thou a fan of the Bard?

P.S. I tend to look a bit like Yorick. (See above) When my brother's high school students staged it, I tried out for the part, but he didn't give it to me. I think I was beaten out by someone from the Biology Department.
