For some random reason, I always thought it was "Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your spears".... I guess it rhymes lol with the true answer.

The only reason i knew that one is from an Eagles song from their Hell Freezes Over album called "Get Over It." The line is "...old Billy was right...let's kill all the lawyers...kill 'em tonight." I never knew who the heck Old Billy was...turns out "Old Billy" is Billy Shakespere. Weird.

It may seem good advice, but the character that speaks it is NOT a hero. It's not Shakespeare's actual sentiment.

shocked, but maybe you have not had experiences with weird people that love that quote and really want to murder lawyers (of course they will call one once they are caught) lol

Wow. I got 11 of them and I've only read his sonnets. I guess some of them have become more like sayings.

Could've sworn I typed "glitters". Was credited with a correct answer. I feel like that should be wrong. If not for scanning the comments section, I would never have realized it should have been "glisters". I dunno, maybe I made a happy mistake and mistyped "glitters" as "glisters".

Odd. For Richard III and "My kingdom for a ....", it wouldn't accept "beer", no matter how many times I typed it. :-P

Great quiz, I surprised myself getting 18/20 but many of these quotes although coined by Shakespeare have become sayings. I missed the "kill the lawyers" and missed 'Dreams' although I have heard it often enough.

Every time I see "all that glisters" I can't help but think of Shrek bashing the door of his outhouse open to "All Star" by Smash Mouth XP

I feel the same about "All the world's a stage..." from Rush's song Limelight. Along those lines, one of my favorite lyrics of theirs, which i always thought was Shakespearian from "Closer to the Heart" ... "And the men who hold high places, must be the ones who start, to mold a new reality, closer to the heart."

Since Henry VI was English, wouldn't he have said: "... Let's kill all the Solicitors" or "Let's kill all the Barristers." ?

Whilst understandable, 'glitter' should probably not be allowed as a type-in, in a quotations quiz, where the idea is to get the quote right. I know glister is an archaic word for glitter, but it's still the only word that should be acceptable as the answer.
