My mistress's eyes
Apr. 24th, 2008 02:06 pmSo it's not Friday yet but here I am asking questions.
I have this character who tends to quote Shakespeare during his psychopathic episodes. (He was raised in a basement. There were a lot of books, and not much else.)
I'm trying to build a nice stable of references that I can draw on to use without having to hunt through Bartlett's or having to rely on just having read Antony and Cleopatra and remembering the perfect line I just heard. So I'm coming to you, my LJ braintrust, and asking for your contributions. In retrospect, I have quite a few, but I'm always interested in others' perspective. (If you would, quote me the play so that I can find the reference and get some context.)
( These are lines that I recall he's used in the past, to get you started: )
