The Shakespeare Game

Here are a few wonderful Shakespeare quotes. Reply with the Play, Act, and Scene that each is from.

(Inspired by Do You Know This by Grey_Wolf.)

101 - No, this my hand will rather the multitudinous seas in incarnadine, making the green one red.
102 - I'll make my heaven in a lady's lap, and deck my body in gay ornaments, and witch sweet ladies with my words and looks.
103 - 'Against my will I am sent to bid you come in to dinner;' there's a double meaning in that.
104 - As swift as lead, sir.
105 - Perdition catch my soul, but I do love thee! and when I love thee not, chaos is come again.

101 - Macbeth, either a later scene of Act 1 or an early scene in Act 2, probably the former.

At least two of the others are from Much Ado. I think.

101: yeah, MacB. His angsty monologue after the murder. Let's see. Witches, Battle, Witches, Reward, Lady M, Duncan, Dagger. So around the 8th scene of the play, I'm going to say II.4?
102: sounds like Benedick in Much Ado ("live in thy heart, die in thy lap, and be buried in thine eyes.) but the cynic in me says Richard III. Sounds like a villain. II, i?
103: Much Ado About Nothing, Act...II? It's the scene where B&B are getting tricked into loving each other, comes right after Benedick being tricked. Scene...hmm...3?
104: A bit short, wouldn't you say? No idea.
105: shoot, I know this. Chaos is come again...Othello definitely. III, iv? No idea really where it comes in the play.
