Well Done!
Good for you! These Shakespeare quotes are NOT common knowledge, and even to guess their intent shows you remember quite a bit from Shakespeare's wonderful plays. Good job!
 
Terrific Work!
We thoughts we were SO clever with this one. "People don't much remember these old Shakespeare quotes" we thought. Well, isn't our face red (or it would be if there wasn't egg all over it). You really showed some incredible knowledge for lines that have been out of use for a very long time. Our sincere adoration and congratulations!
