What can you say that hasn't been said about the works of one of the most brilliant minds who ever lived? All superlatives elude me. Only the Ancient Greek playwrights are his equals.

Twelfth Night: Clown: A great while ago the world begun, with hey, ho, the wind and the rain:--But that's all one, our play is done, and we'll strive to please you every day. Much Ado: Benedick: Think not on him till to-morrow: I'll devise thee brave punishments for him --Strike up, pipers! As You Like It: Rosalind: If I were a woman, I would kiss as many of you as had beards that pleased me, complexions that liked me, and breaths that I defied not: and, I am sure, as many as have good beards, or good faces, or sweet breaths, will, for my kind offer, when I make curtsy, bid me farewell. Merchant of Venice: Gratiano: Well, while I live I'll fear no other thing so sore as keeping safe Nerissa's ring. All's Well: King: Your gentle hands lend us, and take our hearts. Merry Wives: Ford: Sir John, To Master Brook you yet shall hold your word; for he to-night shall lie with Mistress Ford. Measure: Duke: So, bring us to our palace; where we'll show what's yet behind, that's meet you should know.
