The Top 15 Least-Quoted Lines from Shakespeare (Part I)
- "Let me not to the marriage of two stars admit impediments...
except for prenups, Scientology and a complete lack of sexual chemistry."

To thine own self be true If thou knowest what I meaneth."
- "I seek to find those amongst thee as have released the canine beasts."
- "If the glove fitteth not,
acquitteth you must."
- "Out, out damn spot!
Lord Starr doth this way come!"
- "In gold cannot my love for thee be wrought.
Hark! Thy pimp approacheth!"

- "Oh, what a tangled web we surf,
For pics of Britney's astroturf."

Twist that dial and all is mended. The Rage and Demons battle o'er hell. See it, hear it, feel it -- the XFL! (Tonight on UPN at 8, 7 central)"

Kick the guy next to us in the nads, Do we not laugh mightily?"

You okay, Julius? Julius? Quick, grab his wallet, I'll get his sandals."

Of this potion thou hast given me... Will't rest upon mine posterior And lik'n't unto that of an ox?"

Or art thou just glad to see me?"
