Subject: The Expurgated Bard
Zella's Shakespeare parody in the Haiku thread made me think about a slightly more cultural quiz...
All the following are Shakespearean quotes with a word or words missing. Bonus points for the play/character. They should be right, but they're from memory so there may be the occasional lapse...
1. Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
Macbeth Tao (Sorry Kaz)
2. That which we may call a rose by any other name
Juliet in Romeo and Juliet Kaz/IndyGent
3. Is this a dagger I see before me
Macbeth Tao/Kaz
4. Alas poor Yorick, I knew him Horatio
Hamlet Tao
5. Where the Bee sucks, there suck I
Zella
6. If you prick us, do we not Bleed?
Kaz
7. A Horse! a Horse! my kingdom for a Horse!
Richard III FBVP/Zella
8. All the World's a Stage
As you like it by Jaques FBPV/Indy Gent
9. Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown
Henry IV (Part II) Kaz/Indy Gent
10.But, for my own part, it was Greek to me
Julius Caesar cornboy98
11. Rosemary, that's for remembrance....
Ophelia in Hamlet Kaz
Enjoy!

I think I got 1 correct (the others were fumbled :P)
1. Macbeth, Scene V
SEYTON. The Queen, my lord, is dead.
MACBETH. She should have died hereafter;
There would have been a time for such a word.
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time;
Hamlet and Macbeth are the only 2 plays I know well
