I know the feeling, I expect a good many quotes are now of no significance.
I wonder what will be thought of POP music in say 100 years hence. The girls went mad over those smart uniforms. Well girls will be girls.

Kenneth Branagh has made Shakespeare a lot more accessible to modern audiences, and if I were teaching high school I wouldn't hesitate to show them HENRY V or MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING.
TAPS has nailed the line.

There is one important difference - that appalling spectacle at Washington and in the media is not a well-constructed play - it's not even good improv! But since we're into Shakespeare, permit me: 'A plague on both their houses!' Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet...

"Thou liest, thou shag-haired villian!" (MacBeth) sounds quite apt for someone spouting to our POTUS at times
