Anything spoken by Alan Rickman. Period. If Cashmere had a voice... Sigh no more, ladies. Sigh no more. Men were deceivers ever. One foot in sea, and one on shore. To one thing constant never. Then sigh not so, but let them go and be you blithe and bonny, converting all your sounds of woe into Hey! Nonny, nonny. -Emma Thompson as Beatrice in Much Ado. A Classic is something that everbody wants to have read and nobody has read. - Mark Twain So did you find out your part in the nativity play? Yeah. I'm a lobster! A lobster? First lobster. You mean there was more than one lobster at the birth of Jesus? Duh. -Love Actually I like traffic lights, but only when they're green. -Monty Python Clothes make the man. Naked people have very little influence in society. - Mark Twain If Shakespeare knew of the human condition in Alaska...imagine the possibilities.--Moi
