Shakespeare Book Quote Game
Hello,I thou ...

Hello,

I thought I could start a Shakespeare Quote Game on CB, so i will start.

" What's in a name?"

After a person guesses the quote they can post a new one.

Oh! How could I have been so stupid! Julius Caesar, right? Feel free to guess my quote.

Fluffy says: goji. A real word! Are you eating Goji Berries?

Nope!

Another hint: the person saying it was a queen.

I shall answer the unanswered!

@Teresa: That's A Midsummer Night's Dream. My favorite Shakespeare play!

@Winter Firefly: I'm pretty sure "the live-long day" is from Julius Caesar!

@St.Owl: The "willow" quote is from Hamlet! I think?

Now here's another one...

"All the world's a stage."

I am obsessed with Shakespeare.

"Do you bite your thumb at us, sir?"

Probably the only Shakespeare quote I know that people might not know.

Err... Hamlet? My Shakespeare knowledge is pretty terrible, with the exception of one play.

I don't know a lot of Shakespeare, but what I do know, I love. I had this whole thing where I read Shakespeare graphic novels. Anyways, hopefully the quotes I've learned are not abridged. (I mean, the graphic novels were abridged, but I do know a couple of scenes.) This is where I'll find out.

"Accursed be the tongue that tell me so, for it has (hasth?) cowwed my better part of man!"

And here's just a little snippet:

"But I know none, and therefore am no beast."
